Best way to monitor Paging for -B tweaks?

Hello All,

I'm on a Solaris box which just got a RAM upgrade last month.

We've got 2gig ram and only 4% buffer hits, so I want to crank up the -B.

...but I'm not sure the best way to monitor paging activity....

vmstat gives about 10 columns of data, with 2 being "pi" and "po", but the man page doesn't describe them....

....Looking for a more verbose analysis of paging activity.

Many thanks for any tips you might provide.
