Hi,

uploaded my scripts to
https://github.com/sergey-senozhatsky/slabinfo

A set of very simple bash scripts. The README file contains
some sort of documentation and a 'tutorial'.

==================================================================
To start collecting samples, record file name is NOMERGE, note sudo

sudo ./slabinfo-plotter.sh -r NOMERGE

#^C or reboot

pre-process records file for gnuplot

./slabinfo-plotter.sh -p NOMERGE -b gnuplot
File gnuplot_slabs-by-loss-NOMERGE
File gnuplot_slabs-by-size-NOMERGE
File gnuplot_totals-NOMERGE

generate grphs from 'slabinfo totals'

./gnuplot-totals.sh -f gnuplot_totals-NOMERGE


Graph file name -- gnuplot_totals-NOMERGE.png
...

==================================================================


Two things:
-- it wants a patched version of slabinfo (some sort of patches are in
   kernel_patches/ dir)
-- it wants slabinfo to be in PATH


For now on it does what it does -- captures numbers and picks only ones
that are interesting to me and generates plots.


I'm doing this in my spare time, but I'm surely accepting improvement
requests/ideas, pull requests, and everything that follows.


Will play around with the scripts for some time to make sure they
are usable and then we can decide if there is a place for something
like this in the kernel or it's better be done somehow differently.
