Performance Counter Blues...

The "PhysicalDisk\% Disk Time" performance counter doesn't work in Microsoft .NET v1.0, v1.1, or (apparently) v2.0. It's a known bug:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324548

Since it's know, you'd think it would get fixed, but it's not fixed in the latest Whidbey bits. Bummer (and this isn't a terribly uncommon counter to want to read). You have to resort to WMI to read this counter.

If .NET was Opens Source Software, anybody could go ahead and provide a fix instead of waiting for MS to fix it. Another great illustration of why OSS is the way to go for this type of software especially.
