Subject: [PATCH 8/9] perf stat: Display length strings of each run for --table option
Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2018 11:08:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180423090823.32309-9-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180423090823.32309-1-jolsa@kernel.org>

Adding support to display visual aid 'length strings' to
easily spot the biggest difference in time table.

  $ perf stat -r 10 --table perf bench sched pipe
  ...

   Performance counter stats for './perf bench sched pipe' (5 runs):

             # Table of individual measurements:
             5.189 (-0.293) #
             5.189 (-0.294) #
             5.186 (-0.296) #
             5.663 (+0.181) ##
             6.186 (+0.703) ####

             # Final result:
             5.483 +- 0.198 seconds time elapsed  ( +-  3.62% )
