Description Simon Barner 2004-07-31 16:00:24 UTC 
Calltree uses runtime instrumentation via the Valgrind framework for
its cache simulation and call tracing. This way, even shared libraries
and dynamically opened plugins can be profiled. The data files
generated by Calltree can be loaded into KCachegrind for browsing the
performance results. But there is also a command line tool in the
Calltree package to get ASCII reports from Calltree data files without
the need to use KCachegrind.

For more information see: http://kcachegrind.sf.net/

Note: There is another PR for kcachegrind which is a visualiation tool
      for the data collected by calltree.

FYI: I added a patch for the configure script to fix a failure to detect 
vg_skin.h on -STABLE.
