+Above we can see the columns are corresponding well. "re" and "mf" in the
+DTrace output appear four times as large as they should be, because in the
+DTrace output we are printing Kbs not page counts (for consistancy).
+
+The DTrace output lacks the "summary since boot" line, as it is not using
+Kstat to fetch this data.
+
+
+The vmstat-p.d script is not intended itself as a useful program, rather it
+is intended as a starting point for other DTrace scripts; a starting point
+of familiar statistics to provide the programmer with a "common ground"
+of knowledge.
