Making profiling data user-friendly

Registered by Jesse Barker

We would like to have an easy way to make sense out of the data we will collect from profiling and benchmarking. Some of this is API trace data, for which it would be nice to have a common format. Some of this is determining the best way to present the data to the user so that it is meaningful.
