As far as I understand...

KCacheGrind's (§ 1.3 Associations) :
  calls=(Call Count) (Destination position)
  (Source position) (Inclusive cost of call)
furthermore the second line is a common pattern for KCacheGrind

Xdebug's :
  calls=(decimalDigits1) (decimalDigits2) (decimalDigits3)

Not even thru http://wiki.php.net/gsoc/2008#xdebug_profiling_web_frontend ?
imho it would be better to code search of file / function only once
"Name compression" would allow direct access for all viewers of
profiler, wouldn't it ?
