AcuServer has an option to collect and report server statistics. When the COUNT_STATISTICS configuration variable is set to true, you can track memory usage, network reads and writes, socket select calls, and time spent in kernel, user, and idle modes. You can also track access to Vision, relative, and sequential data files, recording the number of file reads, writes, rewrites, deletes, and so on. See Server Configuration Variables for more information.
To get memory information, start AcuServer with the new -d option (acuserve -start -d). If you do not specify the -d parameter, memory is not tracked and is reported as 0 at all times.
To get a detailed server history, use the command:
acuserve -statistics -t [parameter] [-n port]
