Right, useful pointers, thanks, barring patents, I think we can get that
with perf at some point.

Catering to I/O bound workloads is something that is in the radar, has
been experimented with and should resume development soon, please take a
look at the 'trace' description at:

http://lwn.net/Articles/415728/

The discussion also has lots of useful suggestions and insights.

It is an area that badly needs help to get the perf infrastructure to
the next level, beyong the current state of good (excellent?) CPU bound
profiling.
