Good point on the summon event, Benbash. Yeah, this topic was done before the new combatlog of 2.4 patch.

If you're trying to piece together raids, though, you need to see the SUMMON event to get the ID-on-creation of the totem (or pet). You'll always be able to track your own totems, and usually other players' totems. But if someone comes into the instance with a pet already summoned (or resummons it after a wipe when you're not nearby), there's no mechanical way to associate the pet with its owner.

Swstats reports too manny WOW errors, so it's not good for me either. I'm testing Recount now and it looks good, even though I never use the graphs! ;) Yep.

It's even more flexible than SWStats (it includes a graphing function that serves little purpose other than seeing output in a nice piechart) and is considerably less of a memory hog.
