+SQL Debugging
+-------------
+AWX includes a powerful tool for tracking slow queries across all of its Python processes.
+As the awx user, run:
+
+```
+$ awx-manage profile_sql --threshold 2 --minutes 5
+```
+
+...where threshold is the max query time in seconds, and minutes it the number of minutes to record.
+For the next five minutes (in this example), any awx Python process that generates a SQL query
+that runs for >2s will be recorded in a .sqlite database in /var/log/tower/profile
+
+This is a useful tool for logging all queries at a per-process level, or filtering and searching for
+queries within a certain code branch.  For example, if you observed that certain HTTP requests were
+particularly slow, you could enable profiling, perform the slow request, and then search the log:
+
+```
+$ sqlite3 -column -header /var/log/tower/profile/uwsgi.sqlite
+sqlite> .schema queries
+CREATE TABLE queries (
+    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+    version TEXT,             # the awx version
+    pid INTEGER,              # the pid of the process
+    stamp DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    argv REAL,                # argv of the process
+    time REAL,                # time to run the query (in seconds)
+    sql TEXT,                 # the actual query
+    explain TEXT,             # EXPLAIN VERBOSE ... of the query
+    bt TEXT                   # python stack trace that led to the query running
+);
+sqlite> SELECT time, sql FROM queries ORDER BY time DESC LIMIT 1;
