My bad. My script is pulling the wrong value for page reads from syschkio.
The actual number is 20 million page reads from syschkio.

HI, Jack,
Is this table fragmented to more than one chunk?

poking about.
I have a table, in a single dbspace, in a single chunk. (Cooked).
According to sysptprof, there have been 4.2 million page reads against the
table.
According to syschkio, there have been 3.6 million pages read from the
chunk.
Obviously this is a discrepancy, how is it getting resolved? A request is
made to disk to read a page, and the page has already been read? Then why
doesn't it count in bufreads?
This particular table accounts for 88% of my i/o against this disk, so add
another 400K or so page reads to the 4.2 million number.
Page writes seem to be more consistent with what I'd expect.
