+### `vmstat`
+
+`vmstat` provides similar metrics to `htop` but tells you more about the memory state and the activities of the kernel in a single row.
+
+The default output is a single line with the averages since boot. You can add a delay parameter (in secs) which will then output at that interval, allowing you to see memory usage in realtime, e.g:
+
+```

+- `procs`
+  - The number of runnable processes (`r`) and the number of blocked (`b`) processes
+- `memory`
+  - The core memory output distinguishing:
+    - Total kbs swapped to disk
+    - Total kbs free
+    - Total kbs currently in [buffer](/Hardware/Memory/Role_in_computation.md#relation-between-cache-and-buffers) and not written
+    - Total amount of virtual memory in the [cache](/Hardware/Memory/Role_in_computation.md#relation-between-cache-and-buffers)
+- `swap`
+  - Distinguishes amount of memory [swapped](/Operating_Systems/Disks/Swap_space.md) in (`si`) to memory and swapped out (`so`) to disk
+- `io`
+  - Disk actions
+  - Amount of data read from harddisk (`bi`)
+  - Amount of data written to harddisk (`bo`)
+- `system`
+  - The number of times the kernel switches to kernel code
+- `cpu`
+  - Percentage of the different CPU behaviours:
+    - Responding to user tasks (`us`)
+    - Time that it is idle (`id`)
+
 ## Files being used by active processes: `lsof`
 
 `lsof` stands for _list open files_. It lists opened files and the processes using them. Without modifiers it outputs a huge amount of data. The best way to use it is to execute it against a specific PID. For example the below output gives me some useful info about which files VS Code is using:

-Pretty much the same as `free` but in the context of virtual memory. It also distinguishes between buffer and cache.

-- `r` stands for the number of runnable processes
-- `b` stands for the number of blocked processes: those waiting for I/O to complete before proceeding.
-- `si/so`: the amount of memory swapped in (from disk) and swapped out (to disk)
-- `bi/ bo`: the amount of blocks received from a device (`bi`), the amoung of blocks sent to a device (`bo`)
