Thank you for your patch.

I can some difference in the output, but I wouldn't say that it's fixed.

Here are some samples, if it's useful somehow:

https://gist.github.com/vcgomes/985626705e0968b973e426964f86a4b0

The "ping" tests were done running

$ sudo ./tools/perf/perf record -g -- ping -f -c 1000 127.0.0.1

And the "sleep" tests were done running

$ sudo ./tools/perf/perf record -g -- /bin/sleep 1
