Add `-m` switch to vmprof cli

BarrensZeppelin commented 6 months ago

It makes vmprof run the specified program with runpy.run_module instead of runpy.run_path.

Could you add a test for this, and add it to the documentation?

BarrensZeppelin commented 6 months ago

Like this? :slightly_smiling_face:

mattip commented 6 months ago

Yes, thanks. I assume you have run this and it successfully calls the module as expected?

Yeah. http.server is a bad example for performance profiling, but it seems to work:

$ python3 -m vmprof --output file.prof -m http.server
