Incoherent measures with perf record While trying to get some measures from HPC with `perf record`, I'm getting some incoherent values, I think. I'm using the next command to get some mesures: `perf record -T -F997 -e cache-misses:u,branch-misses:u find / -name afile` As output, there are values that decrease instead of increase. Is it possible? As an example, here are three consecutive measures: ... find 6775 15876.485325: branch-misses:u: 413ff0 [unknown] (/usr/bin/find) find 6775 15876.501636: branch-misses:u: 403d8c [unknown] (/usr/bin/find) find 6775 15876.536531: branch-misses:u: 4140a0 [unknown] (/usr/bin/find) ... The second measure is lower than the first one. How is it possible that branch-misses decrease? Am I misinterpreting the output? Thanks in advance. Regards.

Looks like you are using `perf script` which gives trace of perf record or List all raw events from perf record. Try doing `perf report` to see the perf output numbers
