-(This section is of historical importance only; the old profiler
-discussed here was last seen in Python 1.1.)
-
-The big changes from old profiling module are that you get more
-information, and you pay less CPU time.  It's not a trade-off, it's a
-trade-up.
-
-To be specific:
-
-\begin{description}
-
-\item[Bugs removed:]
-Local stack frame is no longer molested, execution time is now charged
-to correct functions.
-
-\item[Accuracy increased:]
-Profiler execution time is no longer charged to user's code,
-calibration for platform is supported, file reads are not done \emph{by}
-profiler \emph{during} profiling (and charged to user's code!).
-
-\item[Speed increased:]
-Overhead CPU cost was reduced by more than a factor of two (perhaps a
-factor of five), lightweight profiler module is all that must be
-loaded, and the report generating module (\module{pstats}) is not needed
-during profiling.
-
-\item[Recursive functions support:]
-Cumulative times in recursive functions are correctly calculated;
-recursive entries are counted.
-
-\item[Large growth in report generating UI:]
-Distinct profiles runs can be added together forming a comprehensive
-report; functions that import statistics take arbitrary lists of
-files; sorting criteria is now based on keywords (instead of 4 integer
-options); reports shows what functions were profiled as well as what
-profile file was referenced; output format has been improved.
