when periodic is *not* running, gstat numbers fluctuate between whats
indicated below and all zeros:
dT: 1.011s w: 1.000s

(then all 0s repeatedly)
When periodic *is* running:
dT: 1.047s w: 1.000s
L(q) ops/s r/s kBps ms/r w/s kBps ms/w %busy Name
2 89 34 138 88.1 54 783 33.9 95.0| da0

2 90 35 141 86.3 54 783 34.2 96.9| da0p3.eli
the kBps number varies wildly between 100 and 1200. %busy is 92-102%
# iostat -x -d 1

Numbers vary wildly here, too. I wonder if theres a switch for iostat that lets it
run for say 1000 seconds then produces an average of the values gathered.
I'll look for one
