Ok, tested and applied an example for when wanting to monitor for an
specific cgroup and also for system wide:

----
If wanting to monitor, say, 'cycles' for a cgroup and also for system wide, this
command line can be used: 'perf stat -e cycles -G cgroup_name -a -e cycles'.
----

To further clarify what is in the man page already about -G affecting
only the previously defined events in the command line.

Perhaps it would be interesting to automatically detect that the same
event is being read system wide and for an specific cgroup and then,
right after the count for specific cgroups show the percentage?

Thanks,

- Arnaldo
