I'm struggling to think of a scenario in which the number of waits would be useful, assuming you already know the amount of time spent waiting. Even if the number of waits is huge, it doesn't tell you much else AFAICT. I'd be much more likely to adjust the cost settings based on the percentage of time spent sleeping. -- nathan
