In the case where a parent node dominates a child, the relationship in the call graph and the dominator tree would be identical, but this is not always the case.</p><p>In the scenario where the call graph is complete (an edge exists between every pair of nodes), the dominator tree would show the that <code>root</code> is the dominator for every node in the graph. This is an example where the call graph would give you a better understanding around why a piece of code is included in your application.</p><div class="header-wrapper"><h2 id="diff-tab">Diff tab</h2><a class="heading-link" href="#diff-tab" aria-label="Link to 'Diff tab' section">#</a></div><p>The diff tab allows you to compare two snapshots of size information.
