Is there a Linux command to monitor read and writes over a period of time? with what files were accessed and how much data was written.

    Something like iotop -Pao (real-time) or iotop -obd (batch) ought to do the job. I don’t know if it includes writes to non-physical devices like tmpfs.

    Some other commands you might find interesting: iosnoop, fatrace, pidstat, blktrace.
