perf diff: Introduce tool to show performance difference
I guess it is enough to show some examples:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# rm -f perf.data*
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# ls -la perf.data*
ls: cannot access perf.data*: No such file or directory
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf record -f find / > /dev/null
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.062 MB perf.data (~2699 samples) ]
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# ls -la perf.data*
-rw------- 1 root root 74440 2009-12-14 20:03 perf.data
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf record -f find / > /dev/null
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.062 MB perf.data (~2692 samples) ]
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# ls -la perf.data*

This should be enough for diffs where the system is non
volatile, i.e. when one doesn't updates binaries.
For volatile environments, stay tuned for the next perf tool
feature: a buildid cache populated by 'perf record', managed by
'perf buildid-cache' a-la ccache, and used by all the report
tools.
