You can also just copy over the generated tracefile, but you will need
to have the source directory correctly configured in KCacheGrind then.

You mean "auto_trace" here, as the profiler does not these things.

It's very hard to predict its size when writing, so this is something I

will slow down the process *a lot*.) I have been thinking of writing the
trace to a gzipped file though.
