DSPEC Event Set Metrics
Table B-9 “DSPEC Event Set: Metrics Available for Multiplexed PMU Statistics” shows
the metrics available using the DSPEC event set. See “Multiplexed PMU Statistics”
(p. 38) for more information.
In these metrics, replace statistic with one of the following: MEAN, STDEV, 90%CI,
MINIMUM, LOW90, HIGH90, or MAXIMUM.
