Sorry, I rarely need to use perf and of course forgot that the
intermediate output it tightly coupled to the running kernel. Attaching
the output of perf report -g here.

Another metric :)

freecount = 53795884
freecount = 251
freecount = 45
freecount = 381
freecount = 11009
freecount = 6748
freecount = 663
freecount = 595
freecount = 693
freecount = 9089
freecount = 37122
freecount = 2657
freecount = 60497
freecount = 1790275
freecount = 54544

That looks... not really uniform to me.

Cheers

Carsten
