The routine pmSortInstances may be used to guarantee that for each performance metric in the result from pmFetch(3) or pmFetchHighRes(3), the instances are in ascending instance identifier sequence.

This is useful when computing rates from two consecutive samples.

PMAPI(3), pmFetch(3) and pmFetchHighRes(3).

The man page pmSortHighResInstances(3) is an alias of pmSortInstances(3).
