I believe this is the output you get when you use the 'time' command under
GNU/Linux (try to lookup the man page for the 'time' command).
The default output format for timing a command under unix is:
%Uuser %Ssystem %Eelapsed %PCPU (%Xtext+%Ddata %Mmax)k
%Iinputs+%Ooutputs (%Fmajor+%Rminor)pagefaults %Wswaps
So in your case that would correspond to (snipped from the man page of 'time')
14.534 s in user mode
0.020 s in kernel mode
0:14.6 s in real time
99.6% of the CPU allocated to this proces
The next things are I/O or Memory related:
%X is the Average size of the process's shared text space
%D is the Average size of the process's unshared data area
%M is the Maximum resident set size of the process during its lifetime
%I is the Number of file system inputs by the process.
%O is the Number of file system outputs by the process.
%F is the Number of major page faults that occurred while the process was
running. These are faults where the page has to be read in from disk.
%R is the Number of minor, or recoverable, page faults. These are faults for
pages that are not valid but which have not yet been claimed by other virtual
pages. Thus the data in the page is still valid but the system tables must be
updated.
%W is the Number of times the process was swapped out of main memory
Hope that helps
Best regards
