MIGSPEED(8)

✨ MIGSPEED ✨ (manual section 8, Linux Administrator's Manual)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so migspeed is literally a page migration speed tester 🦋 it tells you how fast your pages can hop from one NUMA node to another 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

migspeed -p pages from-nodes to-nodes

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

bestie, migspeed grabs a sample of pages from the node(s) you point at, tries to move them over to the target node, and then times how long the whole move takes ⏱️✨ it's giving science experiment and I'm obsessed 🧪

👑 the -p flag 👑

• -p pages — this is how many pages get tested 🍓 the default sample is 1000 pages, but you can override that by passing in your own number 💜

🌈 NOTES 🌈

ngl this one has a requirement, so check your vibe first 🔥 you need a NUMA policy aware kernel that supports page migration, which means Linux 2.6.16 and later 🫶 if your kernel is older, it's not gonna work and that is not me being dramatic 💀
