Yes, you are absolutely correct.
I was looking at
ls *.log in kung_fu_panda's proposal (which can exceed ARG_MAX limitations). I should have gotten some sleep before I posted my response.
Thanks,

strace-log-merge
STRACE-LOG-MERGE(1) General Commands Manual STRACE-LOG-MERGE(1)
NAME
strace-log-merge - merge strace -ff -tt output
SYNOPSIS
strace-log-merge STRACE_LOG
strace-log-merge --help
DESCRIPTION
strace-log-merge merges the output of strace -ff -tt[t] command, prepending PID to each line and sorting the result using time stamp as a
key.
OPTIONS
--help Show program usage and exit.
STRACE_LOG
Output file name prefix of files produced by a strace -ff -tt[t] command.
EXIT STATUS
0 Success
Non-zero
Error occurred: either no argument specified (in that case a usage is printed), or something went wrong during the processing of
STRACE_LOG.* files.
USAGE EXAMPLE
$ strace -o sleepy -ff -tt -e trace=execve,nanosleep
sh -c 'sleep 0.1 & sleep 0.2 & sleep 0.3'
$ strace-log-merge sleepy | fold -w 72 -s

NOTES
strace-log-merge does not work well with strace logs generated by strace -tt invocation that pass midnight, as those lack the information
required for the proper sorting. Employing the -ttt option in the respective strace invocation should solve the problem.
BUGS
strace-log-merge does not perform any checks whether the files specified are in the correct format and implies that only files from a sin-
gle strace session match STRACE_LOG.* glob pattern.
HISTORY
The initial version of strace-log-merge was written by Denys Vlasenko in 2012.
REPORTING BUGS
Problems with strace-log-merge should be reported to the strace mailing list at <strace-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>.
