Ref T13164. In PHI801, an install reported a particular slow Conduit method call.

Conduit calls aren't easily profilable with normal tools (for example, arc call-conduit --xprofile ... gives you a profile of the client). They can be profiled most easily with bin/conduit call ... --xprofile.

However, bin/conduit call currently doesn't let you pick a user to execute the command on behalf of, so it's not terribly useful for profiling *.edit-style methods which do a write: these need a real acting user.

Ran bin/conduit call --method user.whoami --as epriestley ... with valid, invalid, and no acting users.

$ echo '{}' | ./bin/conduit call --method user.whoami --as epriestley --input -
