So it's 1 min 15 sec against 10 minutes. That makes tracer quite unusable (it's much easier to restart than wait 10 minutes of full CPU usage).

I attach the resulting cProfile-usr_bin_tracer.txt (binary file), gzipped.

Be careful that, even once uncompressed, that file is still a binary file. There are a lot of ways to read and use the cProfile binary file. You can convert the file to a format readable by kcachegrind [1], or run queries on it in Python using the `pstats.Stats` class [2].
