There's also an :ignore >statement, a :match statement to match against certain types of devices >(like iostat's -t argument). Thanks, I didn't know that. obrien has more incentive to read the man page instead of committing and uncommitting wrong workarounds :-). >The reason that devices in systat, iostat, and vmstat aren't shown in the >order they are specified (if they are specified) is because they are >displayed as they're found. They're found in probe order. That saves an >extra sorting step for each display of statistics. The kernel should try to find a better order. Probe order is biased towards slow isa devices.
