New Revision: 6837
   Changeset: http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/6837

Modified:

   trunk/mythtv/configure

Log:

Closes #52

This is the second time someone has missunderstood what
the profile compile type does, so I have added a little
more help on "./configure --help". As I've explained before
the profile option prepares MythTV for sampling profilers
such as oprofile, PerfSuite and vTune.

Profiling an application like MythTV with gprof is completely
useless due to the overhead from the instrumentation inserted
by "-pg".
