Sparklines

Numerical values may have sparklines displayed next to them. A sparkline is a line graph of process rank or thread index against value of the related expression. The exact behavior is determined by the focus control. See Focus control.

When focused on process groups, process ranks are used. Otherwise, thread indices are used. The graph is bound by the minimum and maximum values found, or in the case that all values are equal the line is drawn across the vertical center of the highlighted region. Erroneous values such as Nan and Inf are represented as red vertical bars. If focus is on process groups, clicking on a sparkline displays the Cross-Process Comparison window for closer analysis. Otherwise, clicking on a sparkline displays the Cross-Thread Comparison window.
