Is it just me, or is iostat broken?  I've never been able
to get it to report msps for any of the drives on 2.0.5R
and 2.1R boxen.  "systat -vmstat" doesn't report the msps
figure either.  Have I missed something?

The default iostat report comes out like:

Blast>iostat
      tty          sd0          cpu
 tin tout sps tps msps  us ni sy in id
  29  393 -23  34  0.0   5  0  4  2 89

Any clues would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Chris

P.S.  Hats off to the development gang on 2.1!  In general,
I've found it to be rock solid.
