In the object reference and Call Graphs, logarithmic line scaling uses the thickness of lines linking nodes to represent the distribution of measured resources from a node to its immediate neighbor, as the logarithm of the percentage of the total for the current dataset.

This scaling de-emphasizes the accumulation of resources near the root of a subtree and emphasizes small differences between contributing nodes within the subtree.
