+
+;;; Commentary:
+;;
+;; This program is based on the only two existing Emacs Lisp profilers
+;; that I'm aware of, Boaz Ben-Zvi's profile.el, and Root Boy Jim's
+;; profiler.el. Both were written for Emacs 18 and both were pretty
+;; good first shots at profiling, but I found that they didn't provide
+;; the functionality or interface that I wanted.  So I wrote this.
+;; I've tested elp in Lucid Emacs 19.9 and in Emacs 19.22. There's no
+;; point in even trying to make this work with Emacs 18.
+
+;; Unlike previous profilers, elp uses Emacs 19's built-in function
+;; current-time to return interval times.  This obviates the need for
+;; both an external C program and Emacs processes to communicate with
+;; such a program, and thus simplifies the package as a whole.  One
+;; small shortcut: I throw away the most significant 16 bits of
+;; seconds returned by current-time since I doubt anyone will ever
+;; want to profile stuff on the order of 18 hours.  2^16 == 65536
+;; seconds == ~1092 minutes == ~18 hours.
+
+;; Note that there are plenty of factors that could make the times
+;; reported unreliable, including the accuracy and granularity of your
+;; system clock, and the overhead spent in lisp calculating and
+;; recording the intervals.  The latter I figure is pretty constant
+;; so, while the times may not be entirely accurate, I think they'll
+;; give you a good feel for the relative amount of work spent in the
+;; various lisp routines you are profiling.  Note further that times
+;; are calculated using wall-clock time, so other system load will
+;; affect accuracy too.
+
+;; There are only 3 variables you can change to customize behavior of
+;; elp. See below for their description.
+;;
+;; Here is a list of the interactive commands you can use:
+;;   elp-instrument-function
+;;   elp-restore-function
+;;   elp-instrument-list
+;;   elp-restore-list
+;;   elp-restore-all
+;;   elp-reset-function
+;;   elp-reset-list
+;;   elp-reset-all
+;;   elp-results
+;;   elp-submit-bug-report
+;;
+;; Here are some brief usage notes.  If you want to profile a bunch of
+;; functions, set elp-function-list to the list of symbols, then call
+;; elp-instrument-list.  This hacks the functions so that profiling
+;; information is recorded whenever they are called.  To print out the
+;; current results, use elp-results.  With elp-reset-after-results set
+;; to non-nil, profiling information will be reset whenever the
+;; results are displayed, but you can reset all profiling info with
+;; elp-reset-all.
+;;
+;; If you want to sort the results, set elp-sort-by-function to some
+;; predicate function.  The three most obvious choices are predefined:
+;; elp-sort-by-call-count, elp-sort-by-average-time, and
+;; elp-sort-by-total-time.
+;;
+;; Elp can instrument byte-compiled functions just as easily as
+;; interpreted functions.  However, when you redefine a function (e.g.
+;; with eval-defun), you'll need to re-instrument it with
+;; elp-instrument-function.  Re-instrumenting resets profiling
+;; information for that function.  Elp can also handle interactive
+;; functions (i.e. commands), but of course any time spent idling for
+;; user prompts will show up in the timing results.
+;;
+;; You can also designate a `master' function.  Profiling times will
+;; be gathered for instrumented functions only during execution of
+;; this master function.  Thus, if you have some defuns like:
+;;
+;;  (defun foo () (do-something-time-intensive))
+;;  (defun bar () (foo))
+;;  (defun baz () (bar) (foo))
+;;
+;; and you want to find out the amount of time spent in bar and foo,
+;; but only during execution of bar, make bar the master and the call
+;; of foo from baz will not add to foo's total timing sums.  Use
+;; elp-set-master and elp-unset-master to utilize this feature.  Only
+;; one master function can be used at a time.
+
+;; You can restore any function's original function definition with
+;; elp-restore-function.  The other instrument, restore, and reset
+;; functions are provided for symmetry.
