+# This is a POC (proof of concept or piece of crap, take your pick) for reading the
+# text representation of trace output related to page allocation. It makes an attempt
+# to extract some high-level information on what is going on. The accuracy of the parser
+# may vary considerably
+#
+# Example usage: trace-pagealloc-postprocess.pl < /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
+# other options
+#   --prepend-parent	Report on the parent proc and PID
+#   --read-procstat	If the trace lacks process info, get it from /proc
+#   --ignore-pid	Aggregate processes of the same name together
