That's a great idea; I often use it that way. However, I used both the
function tracer and the function graph simultaneously
because the function tracer can also show context messages, such as
displaying 'd.h3.'
Example:
<idle>-0 [001] d.h3. 41.119330: __napi_schedule+0x4/0x90 <-e1000_intr+0x8d/0x110
I suggest that we consider displaying the results of both the function
tracer and the function graph together in the same instance ;-)
