--full-source-path::
Show the full path for source files for srcline output.
+--max-stack::
+ Set the stack depth limit when parsing the callchain, anything
+ beyond the specified depth will be ignored. This is a trade-off
+ between information loss and faster processing especially for
+ workloads that can have a very long callchain stack.
+ Note that when using the --itrace option the synthesized callchain size
+ will override this value if the synthesized callchain size is bigger.
+
+ Default: 127

--ns::
Use 9 decimal places when displaying time (i.e. show the nanoseconds)
