Good point. Still I think I want all the trace sorting blkparse does for me. I didn't want to reimplement that functionality. I don't need other capabilities of blkparse, though, like generating some basic statistics. Perhaps, it would make sense to move some blkparse code to a separate c-file, which could be linked by other tools in the package, blkiomon? Would be fine with me to make this all as light-weight as possible, e.g. get rid of blkparse and a pipe.
