System performance measure tool

vmstat -w 3 20

This will measure the system 3 times per second and show 20 data points

Here is what each column means:

Procs
    r: The number of processes waiting for run time.
    b: The number of processes in uninterruptible sleep.
Memory
    swpd: the amount of virtual memory used.
    free: the amount of idle memory.
    buff: the amount of memory used as buffers.
    cache: the amount of memory used as cache.
    inact: the amount of inactive memory. (-a option)
    active: the amount of active memory. (-a option)
Swap
    si: Amount of memory swapped in from disk (/s).
    so: Amount of memory swapped to disk (/s).
IO
    bi: Blocks received from a block device (blocks/s).
    bo: Blocks sent to a block device (blocks/s).
System
    in: The number of interrupts per second, including the clock.
    cs: The number of context switches per second.
CPU
    These are percentages of total CPU time.
    us: Time spent running non-kernel code. (user time, including nice time)
    sy: Time spent running kernel code. (system time)
    id: Time spent idle. Prior to Linux 2.5.41, this includes IO-wait time.
    wa: Time spent waiting for IO. Prior to Linux 2.5.41, included in idle.
    st: Time stolen from a virtual machine. Prior to Linux 2.6.11, unknown.
 
We can use 
 
fdisk -l
 
to list all the disks in the system
 
Then use the following command to see block size
 
dumpe2fs /dev/sda1 | fgrep -e 'Block size'
