DTrace Repository Created

I have created a repository for DTrace scripts that we have been referencing. Today it's just a download, we will be adding some more verbose descriptions of what the tools do shortly.

Usenix Performance lab scripts uploaded

Thanks to all who attended our Solaris 10 performance class last week at Usenix! The slides are available for reference.

Jim Mauro is spotted here with a giant screen full of DTrace:

We had a great time with the high level of class interaction. One surprise was from Phil Brown -- he showed us a Fujitsu tablet, which itself looked cool, but next he showed us 'uname -a': 5.10 Generic i86pc! Nice.

As a followup to the class, I just posted a tarball of the labs directory, containing the load generation scripts for each of the sessions. Soon, we will also create a place for the DTrace scripts.
