Description amehrega

The following feature lists suggestions that should make analysis of execution statistics easier:

-	Easily identify the method that has had the maximum base/cumulative time.  The execution stat view only shows the addition of the base time for all invocations of a method.  It’s difficult for the user to identify the particular invocation that was the bottleneck.
-	First time users are always confused about the semantics of base or cumulative time.  A quick hover explanation in the view or better naming conventions may help resolve the issue.
-	It’s difficult to determine the execution flow of a method in the method details view.  The user is required to click many times to determine who calls what.  The method statistics view should simply should the stack for a particular method invocation.  The user should then easily be able to walk up/down the stack.

Here are some enhancements I opened a while ago on the profiling views.  I'll make this bug dependent on all of these so we can track them better.  Feel free to update the dependency if you don't agree:
