A small reduction in number of lines can be made by using the -t or -S option of dprofpp. From the man-page: 
       -t   Display subroutine call tree to stdout.  Subroutine statis
+tics are
            not displayed.  When a function is called multiple consecu
+tive
            times at the same calling level then it is displayed once 
+with a
            repeat count.

       -S   Display merged subroutine call tree to stdout.  Statistics
+ are
            displayed for each branch of the tree.

            When a function is called multiple (not necessarily consec
+utive)
            times in the same branch then all these calls go into one 
+branch
            of the next level.  A repeat count is output together with
+ com-
            bined inclusive, exclusive and kids time.

            Branches are sorted w.r.t. inclusive time.

you could use this, together with 'grep' to get info on the modules you really want to (not) see. For instance: 
dprofpp -S | grep -v 'BEGIN'

or 
dprofpp -S | egrep 'Showme|MeToo'
