In fact huge iowait is sign of the serious trouble - it means that system
is
waiting for io to finish so there is probalby user response time impact.
Here is one daily graph (I hope it wil pass trough)
where iow is about 50% during work hours, almost sum of usr and sys. It is
14 CPU 14GB LPAR on P690 with SAN disks
This is oracle database server and apllication users get serious slow downs
during day. So despite machine is actually 50% free
there is a problem. In this special case problem is caused by disk layout
(whole oracle instnce cca 300GB is on one disk and one filesystem)
and application code wcich generates hot spots in the tables.
