in reply to termination of system command

This does not answer your question directly, but why reinvent a wheel here? vmstat will stop itself using it like vmstat delay count. Using the following vmstat will stop collecting after 10 iterations at 10 second intervals.
@val = `vmstat 10 10`;


update - system or IPC::Run3 may serve you better.
