Hardware :: Measure Life Of A CF Card

Jun 9, 2009

I have debian sarge distro installed on CF instead of HDD. The problem is once in couple of months, my machine crashes showing IO errors. There is no option to replace CF with a HDD.

Is there any way I can measure the life of a CF card? I mean what parameters do you use to specify the life of a CF card (number of R/Ws etc)? and, how can I measure those parameters?

Ubuntu :: Improve Battery Life / On-demand Graphics Card?

Jun 16, 2010

My battery life in Ubuntu is much less than that of Windows 7. I am trying to find ways to improve my battery life in Ubuntu. One thing that I notice is that my CPU (Intel Core i7 on a Lenovo Thinkpad W510) always runs at 55 degrees Celsius or even higher. my GPU right now reads 51. Seems pretty toasty to me, but not too over the top. Is it abnormal to have this as an average temperature? (since writing, it has risen to 57. I am on AC power, listening to music with Rhythmbox and browsing the web in Google Chrome.)

My cpu mode is set to 'ondemand', and I think this is a good option to balance power and speed. I am wondering if there is a similar function for the gpu. In my Nvidia settings my "PowerMizer" preferred mode is set to adaptive. Is that essentially all the improvement I'm going to get? In windows it seems like the amount of heat coming from the fan corresponds to running cpu/gpu intensive programs. When I'm not doing much, the exhaust is not as hot. In Ubuntu 10.04, the stream of heat is relatively constant. It does increase with more use, but it seems that the base temperature is higher.

Hardware :: Using A Compact Flash Card As A Hard Drive Improve Battery Life?

Aug 30, 2010

I am wanting to replace the hard drive on my laptop with a Compact Flash Card. I bought a card and a adapter, but I am seeing that there are a lot of downsides to this (e.g. the card is slower, writes should be conserved because of limited write cycles, etc..) plus, in order to change the hard drive in my laptop (ibook g3 clamshell) you literally have to disassemble the entire thing! I mainly wanted to do this project to increase my battery life. However, some people say that it doesn't make much of a difference, while others say it is wonderful. So, to those that have done this mod, how much of a difference did it make for you?

General :: Measure GUI App Startup With Time(1)

Mar 12, 2010

I want to measure the startup time of any GUI app (e.g. firefox) using the time(1) command. However, timing is measured until the app is closed, which has to be done manually by exiting it or clicking X.

How can I get the app to load, terminate immediately and give me the startup time?

Hardware :: Any Way To Measure USB Drive Speed?

May 30, 2011

Any good way to measure USB drive speed in a repeatable and effective way? I know that what I "copy" and how I "copy" and the filesystem in use make a difference in anything I try to measure. I know that I can:choose some file or folder tree use various tools (cp, tar, rsync, etc) to move the data use time command to collect details do this more than once.

One "benchmark" I've used in the past was to create a source tree for some application and use make clean; time make in that tree. Lots of I/O of various sorts and some computation and very repeatable. Since I'm not seeking a gold standard benchmark, I can do what I like, but I'd like to do something (a)meaningful in general for myself and others, and (b)avoid inventing what probably already exists.

Networking :: Need Bandwidth Traffic Measure By IP

May 25, 2011

I have a proxy/gateway server with X routable addresses and X clients, each connecting to his corresponding address from my server. All clients have public static IP's. I need something like the output of 'pktstat -1 -w 10 -B -i eth0 -n -P -t -T' but that would indicate the biggest'traffic hogs' from my clients.

Something like:
67.78.89.90 <-> my.public.ip.1 1344KB/s up 289KB/s down
56.67.78.89 <-> my.public.ip.2 1203KB/s up 200KB/s down

With this output, I can limit the traffic passing thru my server using a bandwidth limiter on my.public.ip.1 and my.public.ip.2. Pktstat only shows the total traffic from-to the respective IP's gathered in a 10second interval (-w 10). I would like something that would indicate the bandwidth per ip more precisely, I don't want to divide the total traffic by 10 (seconds).
Please note that this will go in a cron job. The interactive tools like iftop are useless (I would like something like a text screenshot of iftop from which I could extract the needed information).

CentOS 5 :: How To Measure Bandwidth Speed

Dec 19, 2010

I am wondering if there is a tool that measures bandwidth speed right from the shell on CentOS 5.4/5.5.

I am looking for a speed tool rather than go ahead and download a large file and time it sort of advice.

Please let me know if this is available.

P.S. It is to measure the internet speed from the ISP and not the LAN speed.

Ubuntu Networking :: How To Measure Volume Of Internet Use

Jan 29, 2010

I want to measure how much Internet I use on a day-to-day basis. I don't mean how much time I spend on the Internet. I mean volume of data; i.e. how many Mb of data I download and upload, including everything: surfing, on-line backups, emails, IM, VOIP, updates, streaming, and so forth. I don't need this broken down by type (though it would be nice); I just need totals per 24 hour periods. How can I get these statistics? Do I need to install a special program?

Ubuntu :: How To Measure Temp In UNE 10.04 Since Panel Locked

Jun 14, 2010

Any good ideas for a GUI program that monitors temp for CPU and hard drive? I'd prefer one that is like a system monitor that can show trends on a graph (like CPU usage, etc). It is irritating that you can't even add a silly app to the panel because UNE is locked (ERR, Ubuntu, what were you thinking? Give US the choice! Rant over) So far, I have just written a quick script after installing lm-sensors and hddtemp and run the necessary setup routines that will show me, but I would like some of the history data.

Code:
#! /bin/bash
# zenity --info --title "Temp INFO" --text "sensors"

Ubuntu Servers :: How To Measure Performance On A Computer

Aug 3, 2011

how do you measure performance on a computer?I know there are benchmark sites, they do give a general guidance in selection. However, I want to learn how to build a cluster from commodity parts and want to make sure it is equivalent to a specific server in performance.I know clustering is a bit abstract and it will be difficult to measure direct performance and compare it to one specific board. I am fine with that

Networking :: Tools To Measure Internet Speed ?

Aug 5, 2010

Is there some software to measure Internet speed and show where the slowest element is?

I use OpenSuse 11.1 and KDE although Im happy to set up a user using Gnome.

Just recently my browsing speed dropped to almost nothing ...I used [url] to measure my speed and it gave a very slow result 30kb/sec ....usually its around 3000kb/sec. I rang my ISP's helpdesk and they told me my ADSL connection was fine. Two minutes later it was back to normal!

I know the internet speed varies from time to time ...I guess depending on how many are using it and for what. But..I suspect that my ISP was restricting my speed and Im looking for a tool that will tell me which part of the internet is the "slowest"

I would also welcome pointers to information about internet speed and what causes it to change.
