Playing with Apache::DProf

Apache::DProf is a code profiler for mod_perl. With it, each httpd child writes a tmon.out file in an apacheroot/logs/dprof/PID subdirectory (PID being the PID of the httpd process). This tmon.out file can then be analyzed by dprofpp(1). I can restrict apache to launch only one child, but this bothers me (laziness to reconfigure apache, impatience watching the mod_perl application being slow due to a one child limitation).I have a question. The file format of tmon.out not being (as far as I know) documented, is there a tool to concatenate (or merge) several tmon.out files ? (Does this even makes sense ?)
