Overview
syscallbysysc.d is a DTrace OneLiner to a report of the number of each type of system call made.
This is useful to identify which system call is the most common.
Docs/oneliners.txt and Docs/Examples/oneliners_examples.txt in the DTraceToolkit contain this as a oneliner that can be cut-n-paste to run.
Since this uses DTrace, only users with root privileges can run this command.
