Ian, Namhyung,
here is my output using this command:

The difference when using counts instead of frequency is similar. Most of time the numbers are identical,
but sometime they do not match.
Using task-clock as event, I have similar results. The counts vary a bit, but the numbers are pretty close.
They vary by just a few hundred at the most:
