The effect of our instrumentation is a meaningful trace of the behavior 
of containers, algorithms and iterators, and their interaction.  This 
abstraction level is above what normal profiling tools can offer.  If we 
used normal profiling tools, we would have to reverse engineer the trace 
to get to this level of abstraction.  Let me know if you want me to go 
into more detail.
