While there add a description to -ftime-report and document how they are different?

While there add description to ftime_report and document their difference?

Can TimeTraceGranularity perhaps be stored in TimeTraceProfilerInstance?

is there any possibility of wanting a granularity <1ms in the future? This sets up a backward-compatibility trap if so.

You've got the default repeated here. Is it possible to set this conditionally here, or use the existing value as default like

Opts.TTG = getLastArgIntValue(Args, OPT_fttg_EQ, Opts.TTG, Diags)

llvm/lib/Support/TimeProfiler.cpp

why does this have a default value? It shouldn't be possible to use it without overwriting it, IIUC

Does it really make sense? One can use -ftime-trace-granularity=0, which can show all events.

llvm/lib/Support/TimeProfiler.cpp

Sure, thanks.

Moved to struct TimeProfiler member.

Hmm, ok, removing default value.

Looks ok

I mean, state that one is chrome json trace and another is console table output

The difference is actually deeper at the moment. -ftime-report output is buggy, short and uninformative (as noted by @aras-p in his blog post http://aras-p.info/blog/2019/01/12/Investigating-compile-times-and-Clang-ftime-report/). I would like just to remove -ftime-report option as obsolete and unsupported.

To be more correct, this granularity value (-ftime-trace-granularity=0) will work after this old patch https://reviews.llvm.org/D63325 is commited.
