Perhaps the wording was a bit strong, and I apologize for that. I perhaps should have prefaced it with some kudos to the intel team for encouraging people to look at their systems as a whole, and measure such things.
However I do stand by my assessment that it is way less than ideal to include new static hooks to measure this information.

I haven't gotten a chance to see how is this tool implemented. But I totally disagree with you about it's a shame. Regardless of internal implementation, It's interesting and be very useful. At least, for end users, it helps to visualize system latencies. -Aubrey Intel OpenSolaris Team -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ dtrace-discuss mailing list dtrace-discuss@opensolaris.org
