Flame graphs have extra information in the form of seeing the caller and callees. That, and I find the graphical presentation to be easier to scan.

- gnufx 8y agoOf course I expect to see the call tree, and to flip between that and a flat view, to flip between different metrics in the views, and to see them across processes/threads. I'm talking about graphical tools (perhaps coupled with external reduction of the data) like CUBE [1], Paraprof [2], and those in toolsets like Open|Speedshop [3] and HPCToolkit [4] with which I'm less familiar. 1. http://www.scalasca.org/software/cube-4.x/documentation.html http://www.scalasca.org/software/cube-4.x/documentation.html 2. https://www.cs.uoregon.edu/research/tau/docs/newguide/bk01pt02.html https://www.cs.uoregon.edu/research/tau/docs/newguide/bk01pt... 3. https://openspeedshop.org https://openspeedshop.org 4. https://hpctoolkit.org https://hpctoolkit.org
