It's not integrated into tools/perf/ (it's using the syscall) and we'd welcome it integrated as 'perf view' or 'perf gui' - just like we'd welcome a new from-scratch GUI frontend as well. The latter would have the advantage of growing gradually and naturally - so if you feel like implementing it, please do not hesitate ;-) I had a good hard look at the perf GUI situation a few months ago and GTK looks like the best fit. Even if it's simple initially it would clearly show us the exact demand of GUI versus TUI. I.e. if you are right and it doesnt matter, it will stay simple, if Avi is right and it matters then people will use it as a base and improve it. A win-win scenario.
