  Client LOAD measurement for io-stat
  
  See manpage (hopefully manpage does not reformat my nice ascii graph)
  
  While Service Response Times   and the MIN/MAX/AVG thing in io-stat are measurements on the server load.   The new measurement type LOAD is a measurement of Client LOAD.
  
  Or rather, it is an attempt to measure client LOAD by measuring how much concurrency in its requests the client generates. It the client is slow in starting new i/o when a previous i/o has completed,  this willb e indicated by the concurrency being lowered.
  
  it is an experiment.  i am not aware of any other attempts in deducing client workload from looking at captures.
