I thought of the same thing a while back.
However I have had the time to decipher the gprof data-format
yet.
Is there another profile-format for decent visualization tools
exist ?
I was just using that as an example of what we might want to
output as text.
e.g.
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/gprof/Flat-Profile.html
I wasn't saying that we should mimic gmon.out file format, I
don't think that buys us much.
I disagree anything which allows to use existing visualization
and correlation will be a major win.
If I am going to write a profiler it should have pretty charts.
Also the gnu guys probably put a lot thought into their format.
