CPU sampling shows an Invocations column. When CPU profiling, Invocations means number of times method called. Since CPU sampling can't possibly know that, it's not clear what Invocations means in that mode, and users are confused by them. Jiri says the numbers are actually meaningless. Therefore, they shouldn't be displayed.
Decided to keep the column in NetBeans profiler - just rename it to 'Samples' instead of 'Invocations' and hide it in all views by default.
Invocations -> Samples, hidden by default: http://hg.netbeans.org/profiler-main/rev/9f11bc57f299.
Also addresses bugdb_13734323. Fixed.
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201203170400* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/9f11bc57f299 User: Jiri Sedlacek <jis@netbeans.org> Log: Bugfix #208895 - Invocations -> Samples, hidden by default
