Looks useful but you probably don't want the leaf node (inner most callee)
to be the precise ip/adress rather instead of the function. Otherwise you'll
have way too much branch per hist entry.

Also how do you display callchains in this mode? It seems that it uses
the usual function names. How do you dinstinguish the various branches
in this case?

It would be probably nice to display the nodes as func+offset in this mode?
