Comment(by simonmar):

 We could certainly make `-fhpc` work with profiling (maybe it already
 does).  We could also have a mode for `-fhpc` which only puts ticks on
 top-level functions rather than every subexpression, to reduce the
 overhead.

 However, I suppose the downside for using HPC for entry counts is that the
 HPC data is flat: no call stacks like we get with profiling.
