Yes :-) 

The difficult part is to instrument the C side, and the jk2 scoreboard 
seems to resolve that. From java side - it's quite easy, all you need is 
add getters and collect the data, and JMX will expose them ( using 
per/thread structures - like notes associated with a request to avoid 
sync and keep it fast ). 

But I think we should wait for things to stabilise a bit, there are far 
too many things happening at once.
