The cudf.pandas profiler provides insight into which operations ran on the GPU and which ran on the CPU (and how many times), but it doesn't record the number of CPU/GPU transfers (and how long they took). The profiler should track and report the time spend transferring data between the CPU/GPU.
This is useful information for both profiling workflows, and seeing where we might be doing something wrong.
