[pypy-dev] profiling thoughts

[Maciej Fijalkowski]

As discussed with Samuele & others, we have to decide what to do with
profiling, since cProfile information is sort of pointless. Unladen
swallow people seem (with success) to interface oprofile, which also
has hooks for JVM, so it's already easier.

any thoughts?
