Disk statistics since boot?

Hello,

I'm sure there must be a way to do this, but I'm having a good deal of
trouble finding it.

I'd like to be able to see how many transactions have been done and
how many bytes have been read/written to a given disk since boot. The
closest I can seem to get is iostat -dI, but that doesn't separate the
values out into read and write.

I haven't tried snmpd with UCD-DISKIO-MIB yet, but I'd rather not have
to use that to get the values.

Is this possible, or is it something that might make it into future
versions of geom classes?

Cheers,
