<a class="citerefentry" href="samba.7.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">samba</span>(7)</span></a> suite.</p><p>The <code class="literal">time_audit</code> VFS module logs system calls
that take longer than the number of milliseconds defined by the variable
<code class="literal">time_audit:audit_timeout</code>. It will log the calls and
the time spent in it.
</p><p>It's kind of comparable with <code class="literal">strace -T</code> and
is helpful to reveal performance problems with the underlying file
and storage subsystems.</p><p>This module is stackable.</p></div><div class="refsect1" title="OPTIONS"><a name="id266843"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl><dt><span class="term">time_audit:audit_timeout = number of milliseconds</span></dt><dd><p>VFS calls that take longer than the defined number of milliseconds
that should be logged. The default is 10000 (10s).

</p></div><div class="refsect1" title="AUTHOR"><a name="id265826"></a><h2>AUTHOR</h2><p>The original Samba software and related utilities
were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</p><p>The time_audit VFS module was created with contributions from
Abhidnya Chirmule.
