Thanks. Does the trick for me (almost no disk access on the web server
-- everything in RAM, as is right and proper).
None the less, is it possible to get something more informative than
global number of blocks read/written? It would be useful to have data
like:
* statistics for specific file/directory/filesystem/disk
* something like "top", but for file usage
* percent of time a physical device is accessed
Anything like this available?
