+Profiling:
+
+This is a simple tool that will start the sampling profiler, wait a given period (default = 5mins) and then stop, and unload the profiler.
+Add it to your rom, and to somewhere (early!) in your startup sequence to find out what's happening during a boot sequence.
+
+Argument: -time=<n>
+<n> is the number of milliseconds to wait before stopping the profiler.
+
+
+You can put something like this in a startup command list:
+
+// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+// r_cmd_profiling
+
+// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+//
+
+RESOURCE SSM_START_PROCESS_INFO r_cmd_profiling
