Details

Ran into an issue where the browser toolbox does not display any samples in the call tree or flame graph. Ran into this a long time ago, but not since then. Since its a browser toolbox, it's hard to debug what's going on there once it occurred. It'd be useful to display a small HUD maybe of additional information that'd be useful only for those who work on perf tools. Things like start times from each actor, number of samples and markers from the data sources, updated on recording selection change, etc.. what else could we add? This would only be a preference that does not have any UI component to it, as most likely only me and VP would ever want this.

I believe this is a more generic devtools request. I'm moving this to devtools::general for retriaging.
