[RFC/PATCH 3/4] perf tools: Change default calchain percent limit to 0.05%
From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Wed Feb 03 2016 - 09:12:43 EST
The current default limit of 0.5% is (mostly) for 'fractal' mode which
calculates the percentage relatively. As we changed the default
callchain mode to 'graph', the existing limit is too high IMHO.
Normally there're many entries under 0.5% overhead, it'd be supprising
that they don't show callchains.
