The ".sil" files are System Information Log files, you use the System
Information History view "Find System information log files" button to
bring up a dialog to select your log files.

Before doing that, I suggest you to read the IDE user's guide System
Information section to familiar yourself with the tool. The
documentation tells you what can be done with the tool and how.

It's all the same - thanx to qnx.
It is statistics about resource manager communication.
there is no way to get a real online view on this one.
But you could gather information using kernel traces and do some offline analysis.
Still it is not an easy way to go, 'cause you'll only see Snd/Rcv/Rpl on top level in your trace.
You have to digg into the event details to get the propper information, and even then it is not obvious.

This is exactly the point where we tried to get a more powerfull search capabillty within System Profiler - but yet not 
progress on this.

An other way to go would be that you use qnx resmgr path interception to track this communication.
In this case, you have to be aware of the fact that this method has a high impact on your system and that it is one way 
only.

@Elena: go ahead and take a look at Johns' none offical snoopy resmgr, this one shows howto.

thanks all for your feedback.
I have a layman question, if the QNX Neutrino OS can display parameters such as CPU, Memory, network traffic and Disk i/
o, surely it must be picking it from somewhere? Where is this information stored ?
