From what I understand DTrace is rather tough to use. Secondly it will provide
Solaris only information, so if you are suggesting helpfulness for just Solaris,
then yes it would be. I don't think that DTrace is available for Solaris 8 and
9, the company I work for is still on 8 with possibly some 7's hanging around
somewhere, which is where I expect alot of people to still be, Solaris 10 hasn't
been adopted as widely as expected by Sun, it may gain some momentum with
OpenSolaris, but we shall have to see.
