+Calltree uses runtime instrumentation via the Valgrind framework for its
+cache simulation and call tracing. This way, even shared libraries and
+dynamically opened plugins can be profiled. The data files generated by
+Calltree can be loaded into KCachegrind for browsing the performance results.
+
+But there is also a command line tool in the Calltree package to get ASCII
+reports from Calltree data files without the need to use KCachegrind.
