4.3.7 Reporting Activity for All Processors (mpstat)
The mpstat tool reports activity on a per-processor basis. It reports a number of
useful measures of activity that may indicate issues at the system level. Like
vmstat, mpstat takes an interval parameter that specifies how frequently the
data should be reported. The first lines of output reported give the data since boot
time; the rates are reported in events per second. Sample output from mpstat is
shown in Example 4.18.

Each line of output corresponds to a particular CPU for the previous second.
The columns in the mpstat output are as follows.
CPU: The ID of the CPU to which the data belongs. Data is reported on a per-
CPU basis.
