What units are 'interval end' displayed in?

Why not show the average? What is 'squ'?

These outputs are a bit hard to read - are they wrapped (from very, very
long lines), or is this how they are displayed? If the latter, why not
have some sort of MxN chart like:

   0:  0      1:  0      2:  0      4: 64
   8: 17     16:144     32: 71     64:117
 128: 97    256: 42    512:  3   1024:  0
2048:  0   4096:  0   8192:  0  16384:  0
