I think you should be looking more closely at the DRQ functionality. Did
you play with the logging options that are there (shift-O in jdb)? You
can also add you own logs with "LOG_MSG(current(), "text");" or with
some values using LOG_MSG_3VAL. You can then look at the trace in jdb
via shift-T and thus follow what the code is doing.
