We might want to add a CTRADD type later on, for relative values rather than absolute. But this should get us started. Simply define counters upfront, and then set them during the capture process. Obviously, we need to come up with a good way to visualize this information in the UI.
Sysprof is a sampling profiler that uses a kernel module to generate
stacktraces which are then interpreted by the userspace program
"sysprof".

Debugging symbols
- The programs and libraries you want to profile should be compiled
with -fno-omit-frame-pointers and have debugging symbols available,
or you won't get much usable information.
