Question

我打算尽快购买新的Mac桌面，我想知道CPU，RAM或我的硬盘是否是我脚本的瓶颈。

我在Ubuntu 12.04上使用Ruby 1.9.3运行主要单元测试并获得以下信息：

$ date; /usr/bin/time --verbose ruby1.9.1 test/test_all.rb ; date
Mon May  7 15:04:38 EST 2012
Run options:

由于用户加系统所花费的时间少于挂起时间，我认为CPU不是唯一的瓶颈。我怎样才能弄清楚瓶颈还有什么呢？

您可以使用valgrind's cachegrind工具分析程序的内存性能（即它如何利用缓存）。

$ valgrind --tool=cachegrind ruby ./hello.rb

关于磁盘性能，我认为没有磁盘/ io使用的程序几乎完全在用户时间运行，这让我相信你的硬盘可能至少是你的瓶颈之一。也许有人可以推荐一个好的工具来分析程序的磁盘使用情况？
