Today the drmemtrace trace analyzer supports trace interval analysis where intervals are defined in microseconds of trace time. For some use cases, it'll be useful to also support defining intervals by instr count.
The only limitation we're aware of for #instr interval is that merging them across shards is hard. It would need some sort of pre-processing step to figure out where the whole-trace interval boundaries lie for each shard. For now, we plan to support per-shard #instr intervals only.
