Details

(Whiteboard: [fxp])

Controlling the profiler using a UNIX signal only gives us a very coarse grained interface: We have two signals, so we can either switch the profiler on, or off. This poses an issue when we want to alter configuration options for the profiler (such as buffer size, threads captured, etc), as in many of the situations in which we are forced to use signal control we do not have access to existing configuration tools (namely, the Firefox UI). This bug captures that need, which may be expressed through a firefox pref, or alternative means.
