Does anyone know the (REAL) size of the blocks referred to by the ps command?
The man page just says blocks, the HPSL says 512 bytes, at least two other 
manuals (SA Tasks and SA Concepts) say 2048 bytes. I guess if it refers to disk
blocks, then it _could_ vary, depending on machine, OS, etc. We're running
HP-UX 7.0 on a 9000 835S. Thanx...
