ok, this is something i wanted to revisit eventually - the 
'perf.data' name sucks a bit - as .data postfix is quite unspecific.

Perhaps trace.perf is a better default name, and all files would 
have the .perf postfix?

I've Cc:-ed a number of folks who might have an opinion about this - 
what would be the best default naming and postfix for perf binary 
files?

perf.bin seems to me adequate as it tells everything (IMHO).

hm, .bin is pretty overloaded as well. It also suggests a 
'executable binary' in a certain way - which it isnt.
