For our needs, no.  However, when we first put the PerfMgr in OpenSM there was 
some concern for developers who may be using OpenSM in an embedded environment. 
 Since the option exists (less work for me!) I did not see a good reason to 
take it out so that those developers could still compile it out if they wanted. 
 If this is no longer a requirement then, yes, I can remove the configure 
option.

Does anyone else want to chime in here?

I think this may affect performance.  Although I don't think by much.  Since it 
is more of a development/debugging tool rather than something I think the user 
would want I thought it should still be a compile option.  If we do compile it 
on by default I would put an option in opensm.conf.

Let me know and I can alter the patch as you wish,
Ira
