I understand that prstat -m shows microstate wallclock utilization that should add up to 100% from USR to LAT.
Why do you think it should add up? Its not that simple. For a start, the display you are looking at is process level stats, and some of the processes are multithreaded, so in a given time interval each thread can appear/dissapear/wait for stuff as much as it wants. The prstat display is accumulating some underlying counters, you are not seeing the full set of microstates. Probably the easiest way to get all the data in the format you want is to start with the SE toolkit process class or msacct.se Some detailed discussion on the data sources etc can be found here http://www.itworld.com/Net/3138/UIR980401perf/ Adrian _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
