Start analyzing your file

Have a first rough overview about metrics of your file.
During the first execution the sar file will be parsed and put into a dictionary data structure. Creation of this data structure needs some time depending on the size of the sar file. To speed up this process for further runs this data structure will be saved into a pickled format on disk. This already is reducing the size to about 1/10 of the original size. Whenever the file has to be investigated further the pickled data will be used.
