MemoryInfra: find a way to easily run any memory benchmark with heap profiling

Project Member Reported by primiano@chromium.org, May 27 2016

Issue description

Background context:go/memory-infra: memory profiling in chrome://tracing

Context: the internal thread "WebView memory measurements", related with Issue 577306.

The short story is that running a benchmark (e.g. top_10_mobile) with heap profiling enabled is not that easy. The reason seems to be the fact that 
telemetry interferes with tracing start/stop, the category enabled and so on.

We should have just a supported, documented and easy way to run a benchmark with heap profiling. We'll need this more and more in the future.

How profiling results are going to be reported?
in the traces when you --output-format=json ?

Thanks for filing this - I totally second that having an easier, documented way of doing that would be much appreciated.

I think this should be changed to "Find a way to run ANY benchmark with memory-infra and heap profiling".
Summary: MemoryInfra: find a way to easily run any memory benchmark with heap profiling (was: MemoryInfra: find a way to easily run a memory benchmark with heap profiling )
