I have lots of code paths taking lots of different classes of locks.

My problem is I don't know what to ask perf for to see if I have a mutex that
is heavily contended, and so some threads are spending a lot of time asleep
waiting to acquire it.  As I said, this is probably pretty basic
stuff, but I'm not
usually much of a userspace guy...

Thanks,
