is the groupping still enabled when we merge groups? could part
of the metric (events) be now computed in different groups?

I was wondering if we could merge all the hasmaps into single
one before the parse the evlist.. this way we won't need removing
later.. but I did not thought this through completely, so it
might not work at some point
