+# Profiling island
+
+To profile specific methods on island a `@profile(sort_args=['cumulative'], print_args=[100])` 
+decorator can be used. 
+Use it as any other decorator. After decorated method is used, a file will appear in a
+directory provided in `profiler_decorator.py`. Filename describes the path of
+the method that was profiled. For example if method `monkey_island/cc/resources/netmap.get`
+was profiled, then the results of this profiling will appear in 
+`monkey_island_cc_resources_netmap_get`.
