<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>This VFS module is part of the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
<para>The <command>time_audit</command> VFS module logs system calls
that take longer than the number of milliseconds defined by the variable
<command>time_audit:timeout</command>. It will log the calls and
the time spent in it.
</para>
<para>It's kind of comparable with <command>strace -T</command> and
is helpful to reveal performance problems with the underlying file
and storage subsystems.</para>
<para>This module is stackable.</para>
</refsect1>

<title>OPTIONS</title>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
