What you have to keep in mind is that -prune is an action and not a condition.
The general break down to the use of prune in find:
Code:
find <path> <condition of prune> -prune -o <other conditions> <action>

BOOTCHART(1)						      General Commands Manual						      BOOTCHART(1)

NAME
bootchart - render a chart from the statistical data recorded with bootchartd SYNOPSIS
bootchart [-f|--format FORMAT] [-n|--no-prune] [-o|--output-dir DIR] files ... DESCRIPTION
bootchart is used to process the log file created by bootchartd(1) (/var/log/bootchart.tgz by default). bootchart builds the process tree and renders a performance chart in different formats. The chart may then be analyzed to examine process dependency and overall resource utilization. OPTIONS
-f,--format FORMAT Sets the format of the image. Possible values are: png, eps, svg (default) -h, --help Display brief usage message. -n, --no-prune Do not prune the process tree. To make the resulting process tree more comprehensible, bootchart will prune the tree using various techniques (removing short-lived processes, merging processes, etc.). This option disables such behavior. -o, --output-dir DIR Sets the output directory for the resulting image. (default: .) -v, --version Show program version. FILES
/var/log/bootchart.tgz the default log file to parse (unless otherwise specified). SEE ALSO
bootchartd(1) AUTHOR
bootchart was written by Ziga Mahkovec <ziga.mahkovec@klika.si>. This manual page was written by Jorg Sommer <joerg@alea.gnuu.de>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others). 2006-03-05 BOOTCHART(1)
