Right now, Xdebug writes trace files/profile files on the fly as to
minimize the amount of memory being used. As trace files and profile
files can be really large (100s of MBs), you'll see that I will have to
do that.

Of course, I could delete these files when at the end of a request the
threshold time has not been reached, but that's a bit ugly.
