| Subject: | time formats are too narrow |
The 'OUT' format does not allow for lines that take 10 seconds or more.
The format does not allow for 2 digits to the left of the decimal. This
ends up hiding very important information from the person reading
smallprof.out.
~> cat test.pl
sleep 1;
sleep 9;
sleep 11;
~> perl -d:SmallProf test.pl; sort -k 2nr smallprof.out
1 9.009251 0.000000 2:sleep 9;
1 1.008629 0.000000 1:sleep 1;

The 'grep' format does not suffer from this problem:
