[issue24084] pstats: sub-millisecond display

[Romuald Brunet]

New submission from Romuald Brunet:

When running pstats with functions that take less than 0.5 millisecond (per call for example), the value shown is '0.000, which isn't really helpful.

This patch aims to show the value in microseconds instead of seconds for values that would otherwise be displayed as '0.000'

(the display may have to be tweaked for non-utf8 users, as the µ character is used)


Example output:
