John, Bhavesh,

OK, so after all of that, I'm going on vacation for a week.
I hope the rest of you are taking some time off too.

My conclusion after my data creation and graphing exercise is that
it might be good if people could play around with collecting and
analyzing real histogram overflow data and see what data formats
provide useful information.

I think we should not rush the patch into John's tree so that we
aren't stuck with a format or type of data that is not optimal.

Bhavesh, if you created this feature based on a real world need
(instead of just a brilliant mind exercise), it would be great
if you could apply the latest iteration (or iterations in the
near future) to your actual data collection and provide a real
world example of how this feature makes cyclictest better.

Thanks,

Frank
