DESCRIPTION
===========

If the server has the profiler module loaded, this program will

times and durations when processing nodes and devices started and
completed.

When this program is stopped, a set of **gnuplot** files and a script to generate
SVG files from the .plot files is generated, along with a .html file to
visualize the profiling results in a browser.
