+The following are examples of php_calldist.d.

+This script traces the elapsed time of PHP functions and prints a report

+
+In total, 3 subroutines were called, one each of func_a(), func_b() and
+func_c(), and sleep was called 3 times. You can see this reflected in the
+"count" column on the right.
+
+The exclusive subroutine elapsed times show that each subroutine spent
+between 256 and 512 microseconds. This time excludes the time spent in
+other subroutines.
+
+The inclusive subroutine elapsed times show that func_c() took between 0.5
+seconds and 1 second, func_b() took between 1 second and 2.1 seconds, and
+func_a() took between 2.1 seconds and 4.2 seconds to execute. This time
+includes the time spent in other subroutines called, and since func_a() called
+func_b() which called func_c(), these times make sense.
+
+These elapsed times are the absolute time from when the subroutine began to
+when it completed - which includes off-CPU time due to other system events
+such as I/O, scheduling, interrupts, etc.
+
+Elapsed times are useful for identifying where latencies are.
+See Notes/ALLelapsed_notes.txt for more details. Also see
+Notes/ALLexclusive_notes.txt and Notes/ALLinclusive_notes.txt for a
+detailed explanation of exclusive vs inclusive subroutine time.
