It'll do the same job for run versus disk wait I'm guessing you mean the xplot/netplot displays from Jim Gettys and Keith Packard's talk about X Window System performance - (http://keithp.com/~keithp/talks/usenix2003/). It's certainly related to the kind of thing I'm talking about here, though I'm not sure its quite directly applicable... it applies more to displaying how well disk read-ahead is working for a particular application, then to viewing the dependency graph for a set of processes. I'd agree it's a relevant reference point, Owen
