Hello dtrace-discuss, Sometimes I want to run a script for some time and every n second output N top entries. trunc() isn''t suitable here as it also removed keys/values. I want it ''coz over time if I use sum() entries which are normally truncated can actually get to top over a time. Maybe printa() extension, something like: printa(@b[10]) - to output top 10? --

Howdy, Is there a method to get the number of elements in an aggregation? Are the results stored in an aggregation guaranteed to be in any type of order? Thanks for any insight, - Ryan -- UNIX Administrator http://daemons.net/~matty

Hi, there was discussion on "truncating aggregation output only" (http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=19008) on DTrace forum. From what was discussed the aggregation options like aggsortrev, aggsortkey, aggsortpos, aggsortkeypos are already available (Thanks Bryan!). I am wondering what are current plans for ''aggtop'' option (or ''truncating aggregation output'' functionality in general)? thanks a lot, -katya
