Another thing possiblity my mind, print that at the end? like: perf record ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data - system wide samples ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.738 MB perf.data (7565 samples) ] ---------- Then people will thing, hey, so now it does systemwide samples when I pass no target, I don't have anymore to type _three_ keys! cool! :-) - Arnaldo
