5          The sum of self and descendents is the major sort
6          for this listing.
7
8          function entries:
9
10index     the index of the function in the call graph
11          listing, as an aid to locating it (see below).
12
13%time     the percentage of the total time of the program
14          accounted for by this function and its
15          descendents.
16
17self      the number of seconds spent in this function
18          itself.
19
20descendents
21          the number of seconds spent in the descendents of
22          this function on behalf of this function.
23
24called    the number of times this function is called (other
25          than recursive calls).
26
27self      the number of times this function calls itself
28          recursively.
29
30name      the name of the function, with an indication of
31          its membership in a cycle, if any.
32
33index     the index of the function in the call graph
34          listing, as an aid to locating it.

37
38          parent listings:
39
40self*     the number of seconds of this function's self time
41          which is due to calls from this parent.
42
43descendents*
44          the number of seconds of this function's
45          descendent time which is due to calls from this
46          parent.
47
48called**  the number of times this function is called by
49          this parent.  This is the numerator of the
50          fraction which divides up the function's time to
51          its parents.
52
53total*    the number of times this function was called by
54          all of its parents.  This is the denominator of
55          the propagation fraction.
56
57parents   the name of this parent, with an indication of the
58          parent's membership in a cycle, if any.
59
60index     the index of this parent in the call graph
61          listing, as an aid in locating it.
62
63
64
65          children listings:
66
67self*     the number of seconds of this child's self time
68          which is due to being called by this function.
69
70descendent*
71          the number of seconds of this child's descendent's
72          time which is due to being called by this
73          function.
74
75called**  the number of times this child is called by this
76          function.  This is the numerator of the
77          propagation fraction for this child.
78
79total*    the number of times this child is called by all
80          functions.  This is the denominator of the
81          propagation fraction.
82
83children  the name of this child, and an indication of its
84          membership in a cycle, if any.
85
86index     the index of this child in the call graph listing,
87          as an aid to locating it.
88
89
90
91          * these fields are omitted for parents (or
92          children) in the same cycle as the function.  If
93          the function (or child) is a member of a cycle,
94          the propagated times and propagation denominator
95          represent the self time and descendent time of the
96          cycle as a whole.
97
98          ** static-only parents and children are indicated
99          by a call count of 0.

103          cycle listings:
104          the cycle as a whole is listed with the same
105          fields as a function entry.  Below it are listed
106          the members of the cycle, and their contributions
107          to the time and call counts of the cycle.
