title: Can I manually say on xdebug profiler to start profiling in specific place?
body: <p>I already have enabled xDebug profiling in my XAMPP installation and it works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Now I like to ask if there is a way to say from within my source code when to start profiling with xDebug.</p>
  
  <p>More specific, I'd like to create a WordPress plugin, and I'd like to say, start profiling from the start point of the plugin and stop profiling at the end point of the plugin.</p>
  
  <p>Is that possible?</p>
  
  <p>Note: The above is just an example. It can be a CakePHP plugin or a new PHP Class that I may need to profile</p>
