+.SH NAME
+dnlcps.d \- DNLC stats by process. Uses DTrace.
+.SH SYNOPSIS

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The DNLC is the Directory Name Lookup Cache. Filename lookups often
+return a hit from here, before needing to traverse the regular file
+system cache or go to disk.

+dnlcps.d prints DNLC statistics by process.
+
+Since this uses DTrace, only the root user or users with the
+dtrace_kernel privilege can run this command.
+.SH OS
+Solaris
+.SH STABILITY
+unstable - this script uses fbt provider probes which may change for
+future updates of the OS, invalidating this script. Please read
+Docs/Notes/ALLfbt_notes.txt for further details about these fbt scripts.
