Really? I was just about to comment that "nobody except insiders really
know what DTrace is".. Are you sure you're not reading internal Sun
magazines? ;-)

FWIW, a quick search at swedens largest tech-news/press-release site
shows up *a single* hit for DTrace this year. It's the press release for
WSJs award they received.
FYI, a postgresql search for the same time gives 20.

If I search a different "business news" (not-just-tech-news-but-some)
site, I don't get any hits at all.
