flamegraph.pl has a --total option which sets the internal variable timemax. I think it basically "compresses" the flamegraph, but not sure exactly what effect that has. If someone cleverer than me can figure out what it is for, document it, and then implement it, that'd be awesome!

The use case for this option is comparing multiple perf runs directly against one another. Specifying the # of samples to use for the total width means the individual rectangles in each graph can be directly compared to each other rather than being resized differently if one run finished more quickly than another.
