[General] Any linux gurus?

[Stephan Henning]

I'd like to take some metrics with iostat while I have a specific program
running, is there a way to wrap iostat around another program (it is called
from the command line) so that iostat ends when the program finishes
running?

I know I can do it with a bash script, but I'm hoping for a more elegant
solution.
