[[!tag idea python profiling]]

I've been in an optimization phase for obnam lately. This means running it under the Python profiler, and examining the results.

It is easy enough to generate a text file with the results, but it might be even better if one could have an interactive tool to examine the profiling results.

It might, for example, be more efficient to sort the report in various ways interactively, or to drill down into the results to see where time is actually spent.

Anyone want to write this for me?
