[xdebug-general] confused by multiple trace files

First off, I'm pretty sure this pertains to version 2.0.0, I compiled/
installed this via PECL just a couple of weeks ago (definitely mid-
August or later)

In any event, I'm confused by the multiple trace files that are
generated. When I specify computer-readable format, I get 3, when I
specify human-readable, I get 2.

As far as I can tell, the difference inherent in the extra trace file
being generated in computer-readable format, is that it seems to
indicate the time that the various functions took to run, *including*
any inherent overhead due to xdebug tracing itself.

If I am correct in the above, I am however still interested in
knowing what the difference between the other 2 files is. The
difference in time of execution is negligible compared to the third
computer-readable format but there is a time difference nevertheless.

Am attaching tails of the various files demonstrating the (time)
differences, hope they don't come out overly garbled ;) Thanks in
advance!
