That answers my question regarding using dtrace to analyse performance
bottlenecks in networking.

At this point,Sun engineers who work in Solaris kernel are customers who
would want to use DTrace Network Provider to track the above code paths
( to do analyse performance bottlenecks and latencies) There will be
Solaris kernel developers OpenSolaris community in future who would need
the same.
Anyway, I am done trying to justify whether the feature I requested is
important or not, and how may customers want it. You seem to have some
quite strong opinions about what Soalris networking engineers need.
Thanks
