+================
+Pyramid Cubicweb
+================
+
+Pyramid Cubicweb is an attempt to rebase the CubicWeb_ framework on pyramid.
+
+It can be used in two different ways:
+
+-   Within CubicWeb, through the 'pyramid' cube and the
+    :ref:`pyramid command <cubicweb-ctl_pyramid>`.
+    In this mode, the Pyramid CubicWeb replaces some parts of
+    CubicWeb and make the pyramid api available to the cubes.
+
+-   Within a pyramid application, it provides easy access to a CubicWeb
+    instance and registry.

+The 'pyramid' command
+=====================
+

+
+The 'pyramid' command is a replacement for the 'start' command of :ref:`cubicweb-ctl`.
+It provides the same options and a few other ones.
+
+.. note::
+
+    The 'pyramid' command is provided by the ``pyramid`` cube.
+
+Options
+-------
+
+
+.. option:: --no-daemon
+
+    Run the server in the foreground.
+
+
+.. option:: --debug-mode
+
+    Activate the repository debug mode (logs in the console and the debug
+    toolbar). Implies :option:`--no-daemon`
+
+.. option:: -D, --debug
+
+    Equals to :option:`--debug-mode` :option:`--no-daemon` :option:`--reload`
+
+.. option:: --reload
+
+    Restart the server if any source file is changed
+
+.. option:: --reload-interval=RELOAD_INTERVAL
+
+    Interval, in seconds, between file modifications checks [current: 1]
+
+.. option:: -l <log level>, --loglevel=<log level>
+
+    Set the loglevel. debug if -D is set, error otherwise
+
+.. option:: -p, --profile
+
+    Enable profiling. See :ref:`profiling`.
+
+.. option:: --profile-output=PROFILE_OUTPUT
+
+    Profiling output file (default: "program.prof")
+
+.. option:: --profile-dump-every=N
+
+    Dump profile stats to ouput every N requests (default: 100)

+
+Profiling
+=========
+
+Profiling of requests by the pyramid debug toolbar can be a little restrictive
+when a specific url needs thin profiling that includes the whole pyramid
+dispatch.
+
+Pyramid CubicWeb provides facilities to profile requests as a
+:func:`wsgi middleware <pyramid_cubicweb.profile.wsgi_profile>`, and a few
+views that facilitate profiling of basic features.
+
+The views and the wsgi middleware are activated when the 'profile' option is
+given. This can be done on the command line
+(:option:`cubicweb-ctl pyramid --profile`) or in the :ref:`pyramid_settings`.
+
+Views
+-----
+
+The following routes and corresponding views are provided when profiling is on:
+
+-   ``/_profile/ping``: Reply 'ping' without doing anything else. See also
+    :func:`pyramid_cubicweb.profile.ping`.
+
+-   ``/_profile/cnx``: Reply 'ping' after getting a cnx. See also
+    :func:`pyramid_cubicweb.profile.cnx`.
+
+Typical Usage
+-------------
+
+Let's say we want to measure the cost of having a ``cnx``.
+
+-   Start the application with profile enabled:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        $ cubicweb-ctl pyramid --no-daemon --profile --profile-dump-every 100
+
+-   Use 'ab' or any other http benchmark tool to throw a lot of requests:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        $ ab -c 1 -n 100 http://localhost:8080/_profile/cnx
+
+-   Analyse the results. I personnaly fancy SnakeViz_:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        $ snakeviz program.prof
+
