The line with the + index number at the left hand margin lists the current function. + The lines above it list the functions that called this function, + and the lines below it list the functions this one called. + This line lists: + index A unique number given to each element of the table. + Index numbers are sorted numerically. + The index number is printed next to every function name so + it is easier to look up where the function is in the table. + + % time This is the percentage of the `total' time that was spent + in this function and its children. Note that due to + different viewpoints, functions excluded by options, etc, + these numbers will NOT add up to 100%. + + self This is the total amount of time spent in this function. + + children This is the total amount of time propagated into this + function by its children. + + called This is the number of times the function was called. + If the function called itself recursively, the number + only includes non-recursive calls, and is followed by + a `+' and the number of recursive calls. + + name The name of the current function. The index number is + printed after it. If the function is a member of a + cycle, the cycle number is printed between the + function's name and the index number. + + + For the function's parents, the fields have the following meanings: + + self This is the amount of time that was propagated directly + from the function into this parent. + + children This is the amount of time that was propagated from + the function's children into this parent. + + called This is the number of times this parent called the + function `/' the total number of times the function + was called.
