The profiler tool shows CPU usage for each process running in RouterOS. It helps to identify which process is using most of the CPU resources.
[admin@MikroTik] > /tool/profile
On multi-core systems, the tool allows specifying per core CPU usage.
"CPU" parameter allows specifying integer number which represents a core or two of predefined values all and total:
- total - this value sets to show the sum of all core usages;
- all - value sets to show CPU usages separately for every available core
In the following example we will take a look at both predefined values:
[admin@MikroTik] > /tool/profile cpu=all NAME CPU USAGE ethernet 1 0% kvm 0 0% kvm 1 4.5% management 0 0% management 1 0.5% idle 0 100% idle 1 93% profiling 0 0% profiling 1 2% [admin@MikroTik] > /tool profile cpu=total NAME CPU USAGE ethernet all 0% console all 0% kvm all 2.7% management all 0% idle all 97.2% profiling all 0% bridging all 0%
