When you specify this option on the command line, you can override all or just part of the sampling_spec setting in the measurement configuration file or the .caliperinit file. This allows you to, in effect, create your own default settings.
For example, if the measurement configuration file contains this setting:

and on the command line, you specify only variation:
the resulting settings would be a rate of 400000, a variation of 5%, and the CPU event
BRANCH_EVENT.
