Not to take away from Steve's excellent work on this, but I actually
spent weeks following detailed instructions from various people using
ktr, dtrace, etc. and was never able to produce any data that helped
point anyone to something that could be fixed. I'm pretty sure that
others have tried as well.

That said, I'm glad that Steve was able to produce useful results, and
hopefully it will lead to improvements.
