Hi,

Thanks for this Stephen.  I still need clarification about the first part of
my original question.  

According to the documentation, the way analog calculates number of
page requests is by counting the file requests with file extensions .asp,
.html and .htm. In the request report, the number of requests for files
ending in these extensions is far higher than the number of pages shown in
the general report. Why is this? 

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me,

Mahesh

Your first thought was correct, in fact. The top line is the total of the
rest. The reason it doesn't add up is because you are only seeing the lines
with at least 20 request. You need to set the REQARGSFLOOR lower to see them
all.
