STATS OFFSET displays a histogram of the offset of the host I/O requests into the cache segments
(Figure 3–40). Host I/O requests with offsets that are not in the 0x0 column may require blocking/
deblocking which can slow down the performance of the system.

STATS REPEAT=OFF|MBS|IOS allows you to enable/disable the repeating statistics display where
MBS displays MB/s, IOS displays IO/s, and OFF turns off (both) the repeating displays.

Background Format/Rebuild Operations
Format and rebuild operations are background processes; their rates can be adjusted to minimize their
impact on system performance.
Figure 3–41 Displaying the Current Rebuild Parameters
TIER displays the current rebuild parameter settings for the system (Figure 3–41).
The TIER DELAY parameter controls the amount of system wait time before rebuilding the next chunk
of data. This parameter slows down the rebuild and format operations so they will not affect the
performance of the system. TIER DELAY=0 will remove many delays so the rebuild and format
operations will go as fast as possible, but this could significantly affect the performance of the system.
NOTE :
A delay value less than 1 (<1) is not recommended.
