Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It's really awesome for seeing perf counters support, but it's much better for more platforms like ARM CPU/GPU perf counters, which will help much for android platform benchmark

Describe the solution you'd like Maybe ARM/HwcPipe is a choice, or just porting Android/Simpleperf
