Hi Jon,
Yes the description is "mostly" correct. We recently found a corner case [1], where large requests (requiring several poll/read) can get high wtime although there was no worker starvation.
Would you provide sample of access log showing this issue ?

I have a new instance of 2.4.5, on which I'm seeing a very high* 'wtime' in the access log.
From https://www.port389.org/docs/389ds/design/access-log-new-time-stats-design.html I read
- wtime - This is the amount of time the operation was waiting in the work queue before being picked up by a worker thread.
Is this still an accurate description of 'wtime' ?
If true, I suspect the high values I'm seeing have nothing to do with the version of the software I'm running, and everything to do with the system on which the software is running. Work has arrived, and been queued, but there aren't enough worker-threads to keep the queue serviced in a timely manner.
* 'high' as in 3,000% longer than what I see on a totally different system running 1.4.4
