Screenshot: tracing read latency for PID 181: # bpftrace -e 'kprobe:vfs_read /pid == 30153/ { @start[tid] = nsecs; } kretprobe:vfs_read /@start[tid]/ { @ns = hist(nsecs - @start[tid]); delete(@start[tid]); }'. in 2004, so I have to think back to that time to understand it. It's shaping up to be a DTrace version 2.0: I wrote seeksize.d

​​ The larger sector sizes involve newer technology and require API changes at the operating system level. The caching of data pages and grouping of log records helps remove much, if not all, of the command latency associated with a write operation.
