To be more explicit, my concerns are about the effect of function
name entry/return probes vs static probes on elapsed time,
as measured by timestamp.

I'm viewing all my timings as a percentage of total elapsed time
and I'm wondering if there's less overhead in using static probes
in this context.

        Thanks, Joel
