Hi

I am interested in using this also for taking snapshots.

Did you consider using a single option, or allowing either a file descriptor
or a pathname, or including also the event default of "disabled".

e.g. add "--control" and support all of:

--control
--control 11
--control 11,15
--control 11,15,disabled
--control 11,,disabled
--control /tmp/my-perf.fifo
--control /tmp/my-perf.fifo,/tmp/my-perf-ack.fifo
--control /tmp/my-perf.fifo,/tmp/my-perf-ack.fifo,disabled
--control /tmp/my-perf.fifo,,disabled

Adrian
