How much trouble is it causing you to have the child processes profiled? It
can generate a number of heap profiles, to be sure, but they're small and have
a well-patterned name that's easy to ignore or delete if you want to.
I'd rather not add more environment variables to perftools (which already has
too many!) if we can help it.

The number of child process heap files can be in the order of thousands at
times. They are the result of "reload" events that spawn a few child processes
for every reload. In some cases we setup automated testing environments that
can run for several days generating many thousands of reloads. I realize that
the more dials and knobs that get added tend to make it a bit more of a
maintenance hassle but this one would be really handy.

But again, is this a problem? How bad is it to have thousands of profile files
hanging around? What is the actual pain point you're seeing here?

Ping. If I don't hear anything in a week or so I'll close the bug.

You can close this one. If it rears its head again I'll take a closer look
at it.
