That's not entirely correct. %w is, according to iostat(1), "percent of time there are transactions waiting for service (queue non-empty)." In Solaris 10, we deleted the calculation of the percentage of CPU time spent waiting for I/O. %w should be unaffected. -j _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
