In the above stat, I can see context switches stat mentioned as 204. But what does the statement after # 0.025 M/sec mean when it comes to context switch ? I can not interpret it as number of switches per seconds. I tried checking the wiki page and manual but was unable to find anything regarding this ?
# 0.025 M/sec means 0.025 million (from mega - from metric/SI prefix) context switches per second (so 25 thousand per second).
