The standard vmstat program has been ported to 386bsd. I also wrote a program
called vstat which looked at the virtual memory information, including the
Mach VM structures. Both were posted to the 386bsd newsgroups, and should
be archived on minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au.

To browse/retrieve these programs:

telnet minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au
