Johannes M Dieterich 3c181cf5f9 new port: benchmarks/flamegraph
A trivial port of Brendan Gregg's collection of flamegraph scripts (a lot of shebang-fixes). This will allow developers to visually profile output from, e.g., ljp and dtrace to locate CPU and memory hogs in workloads.

a stack-trace visualizer
Flame Graphs visualize profiled code. Flame graphs can be created in three
steps: 1) Capture stacks, 2) Fold stacks, 3) flamegraph.pl.
Capturing stacks can be done with Linux perf_events, FreeBSD pmcstat (hwpmc),
DTrace, SystemTap, and many other profilers. See stackcollapse-*
converters. These stackcollapse scripts are used to fold the stacks.
Flamegraph SVGs are created using the flamegraph.pl script.
