how about we display the overhead information same way the main perf output:

  CPU    NMI   NMI time    MTX  MTX time      SB   SB time
  ...  .....   ........  .....  ........  ......  ........
    6     27     111379      0         0      57     90045


would be just matter of adding new sort objects
