Checking performance
Hi,

I'm trying to check performance of processes running on my unix server. I have a system that is working at half the intended load
right now and I want to know what to expect when I'll go to full load.
I know I can use top but I'm not sure whether cpu usage is
the right parameter to check with.
For example if I have a process that uses 20% cpu - does it means that it if it will work with twice as much with twice the load? please advice
