I have a Performance Monitor counter set up with the idea of monitoring
locking. I have set the following:
SQLServer: Locks
  Average Wait Time (ms) _Total
SQLServer: Locks
  Average Wait Time (ms) Table
SQLServer: Locks
  Average Wait Time (ms) Key
SQLServer: Locks
  Average Wait Time (ms) Page

I ran it for 24 hours and everthing was zero (average, minimum, maximum),
for every counter specified above. I was also running separate counters
relating to Physical Disk, CPU, Memory, and all returned data.

Is it possible that they would all be zero, when there was tons of reads
and writes happening?
