// set wxTEST_WX_ONLY to 1 when you want to profile wx's implementation only.
// A little reminder about profiling under Linux:
//
//   1) configure wxWidgets in release mode
//   2) make sure that HAVE_UNIX98_PRINTF is undefined (just #defining it to zero
//      does not work; you must comment out the entire #define) in your setup.h;
//      and also that wxUSE_PRINTF_POS_PARAMS is set to 1; this will force the
//      use of wx's own implementation of wxVsnprintf()
//   3) compile wx
//   4) set wxTEST_WX_ONLY to 1 and compile tests as well
//   5) run "callgrind ./printfbench"
//   6) run "kcachegrind dump_file_generated_by_callgrind"
