The output begins by showing a rate of new processes over 120 per second.
That then ends at time 22:29:59, and for the next few seconds there are zero
new processes per second.
The following example shows a Linux build launched at 6:33:40, on a 36 CPU
server, with make -j36:
# ./pidpersec.bt

A Linux kernel build involves launched many thousands of short-lived processes,
which can be seen in the above output: a rate of over 1,000 processes per
second.
