Hmm. OK, that explains how to benchmark, and I think explains what the 
"std lib" is....

Hmm again. The example shows a "CPU" column with subcolumns of "cs" 
"us" "sy" "id" and "wa", which I might guess include "us" for user and 
"sy" for system. It doesn't say, and apparently my Unix doesn't have 
it.

Still, that makes the *real* question "How come I don't have vmstat?" 
and that's a question for some other forum.

Well, now, that's just embarrassing. RTFM, indeed.
Pop "Where do I find/how do I generate a 'profile list'?" off 
question_stack

Thank you very much, Victor.
