Hello Vladimír, thanks for your reply! This is already good to know. I can't completely stop thinking of a hardware problem… but the provider said, they've changed ram chips and it didn't stop after that. My plan is now try bisecting it, since there are only 68 commits in between the two states

Hi Thomas, How can I override a package to enable profiling? commit [1] adds helper functions that allow referring to any package foo as enableLibraryProfiling foo to get a variant that supports profiling. If you want to enable profiling for *all* packages, then you can replace the
