That's really funny.
Some inconvenience:
1. Tip is never change during one execution of 'perf report', even if I switch to another view using 'enter' and switch back. It should better if tips updated when redrawing.
2. I think add a "Tip: " prefix to the content should be better, or users may confuse what he/her doing causes this message
3. What about creating a tools/perf/Documentation/tips.txt and generate tips table dynamically?
Thank you.
