"""
Statistical profiling for long-running Python processes. This was built to work
with gevent, but would probably work if you ran the emitter in a separate OS
thread too.

Example usage
-------------
Add
>>> import gevent
>>> gevent.spawn(run_profiler, '0.0.0.0', 16384)

in your program to start the profiler, and run the emitter in a new greenlet.
Then curl localhost:16384 to get a list of stack frames and call counts.
