Yeah so that's what I thought but it came up in a conversation and I 
wanted to go to "the source" to get my information before stating what I 
thought was true.  My understanding of perfmon2 was such that I didn't 
think it could do what I currently do w/ kernel probes.

Sorry to derail the conversation, just wanted to get an answer from the 
horse's mouth.
