NAME
       traps - command used to measure system-wide traps

SYNOPSIS
       traps args app params

DESCRIPTION
       The  traps command measures system-wide traps over the entire run of an
       application. If the application is the only load on  the	 system,  then
       all  the traps can be attributed to that one application.  If there are
       multiple applications running on the system, then it is not possible to
       attribute traps to a specific one of them.

       The  traps  command  is a wrapper for trapstat. Hence traps must be run
       with the necessary privileges.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -g file
	      If gnuplot is available on the path, then produce a graph	 show‐
	      ing the trap activity over the entire run of the application.

       -h     Print help information

       -o file
	      Output  the results of the script to the given file, rather than
	      to stdout.

       -V     Print version information

       -v     Generate debug output

       Output

       The output of the traps command will be the average number of traps per
       second for the various traps.
