Here's how I understand it:
First number = number of times (samples) the OST has handled a read or
write.
Second number = the minimum read/write size
Third number = maximum read/write size
Fourth = sum of all the read/write requests in bytes, the quantity of
data read/written.
Since this is in the exports area, it's all that per export of course.
I am working on a wiki page for sharing information on stats details
like this which hopefully will be available soon, it's almost ready. It
will include links to tools like lltop, xltop, and also how to roll your
own.
