Which threads are blocking?
 

Hi,

We have an application that a large part of it occasionally goes completely unresponsive for around 60 seconds.
We've got a permanent vmstat running and it shows that two processes/threads were blocking for the entire time of the "outage"

How do I find out (using DTrace or otherwise) what the blocking processes/threads were and what they were blocking on.

Cheers
