HP Caliper User's Guide

For most reports, you can control which metric to use for sorting and cutoffs. Specify
the metric with the --sort-by metric option. Specify the amount of data with the
--detail-cutoff and the --summary-cutoff options. These two options have
parameters that let you specify how much of the Function Details section and how
much of the Function Summary section should be displayed in the report.
Table 9-2 “Available Metrics for Report Sorting and Cutoffs” shows the metrics you
can use for the --sort-by metric option. The default value for sorting/cutoffs (if
you don't use the --sort-by metric option) is also shown.
