+.TH seeksize.d 1m  "$Date:: 2007-08-05 #$" "USER COMMANDS"
+.SH NAME
+seeksize.d \- print disk event seek report. Uses DTrace.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B seeksize.d
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+seeksize.d is a simple DTrace program to print a report of disk
+event seeks by process. 
+
+This can be used to identify whether processes are accessing the
+disks in a "random" or "sequential" manner. Sequential is often
+desirable, indicated by mostly zero length seeks.
+
+Since this uses DTrace, only the root user or users with the
+dtrace_kernel privilege can run this command.
+.SH OS
+Solaris
+.SH STABILITY
+stable - needs the io provider.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.TP
+Sample until Ctrl\-C is hit then print report,

+.SH DOCUMENTATION

+Docs directory. The DTraceToolkit docs may include full worked
