/** Example 030 Profiling

Profiling is used to get runtime information about code code.

There exist several independent profiling tools.
Examples for free profilers are "gprof" for the GNU toolchain and "very sleepy"
from codersnotes for Windows. Proprietary tools are for example "VTune" from
Intel or "AMD APP Profiler". Those tools work by sampling the running
application regularly to get statistic information about the called functions.
The way to use them is to compile your application with special flags
to include profiling information (some also work with debug information). They
also might allow to profile only certain parts of the code, although
most can't do that. The sampling is usually rather time-consuming which means
the application will be very slow when collecting the profiling data. It's often
useful to start with one of those tools to get an overview over the bottlenecks
in your application. Those tools have the advantage that they don't need any
modifications inside the code.

Once you need to dig deeper the Irrlicht profiler can help you. It works nearly
like a stopwatch. You add start/stop blocks into the parts of your code which
you need to check and the Irrlicht profiler will give you then the exact times
of execution for those parts. And unlike general profiler tools you don't just
get average information about the run-time but also worst-cases. Which tends
to be information you really for a stable framerate. Also the Irrlicht profiler
has a low overhead and affects only the areas which you want to time. So you
can profile applications with nearly original speed.

Irrlicht itself has such profiling information, which is useful to figure out
where the runtime inside the engine is spend. To get that profiling data you
need to recompile Irrlicht with _IRR_COMPILE_WITH_PROFILING_ enabled as
collecting profiling information is disabled by default for speed reasons.

/*
	It's usually a good idea to wrap all your profile code with a define.
	That way you don't have to worry too much about the runtime profiling
	itself takes. You can remove the profiling code completely when you release
	the software by removing a single define.Or sometimes you might want to
	have several such defines for different areas of your application code.
