xcode-users is the list for discussion of all development/debugging/testing tools.

It’s a count of the number of times (samples) that the sampler saw that specific function at that position in the stack. It’s really only meaningful as a relative value compared to other lines — so if you see 500 on one line and 250 on another, twice as much time was spent with the first function on the stack as the second.
