Cache
Read Ahead Ops—Number of times that read ahead pre-fetched data for host reads.
Small Destages—Number of partial stripe destages. (These tend to be very inefficient compared to full stripe writes.)
Write Cache Percent—Percentage of write cache currently being used in tenths of a percent.
Write Cache Space—Current size of write cache in 16KB chunks.
