Hmm.. maybe we can add support something like above later - "perf download event" or "perf download blabla". But I have a different idea - leaving perf download as a plumbing tool, and add --download option into the perf list to call it internally. Maybe it can automatically download event file if it didn't find the file in the local cache. > > I also thought about further sub-command to delete the cache, update > the cache, limit pull to specific vendors, ...
