They were (or close enough) since each sample was weighted according to
current_sampling_interval.

We can't preserve this weighting while switching to nanoseconds, since
that would bump quickly into wrap-around country on 32bit hosts.

As you now don't preserve the weighting, we have the new problem that
starting/stopping/starting/stopping won't count correctly if
profiler-sampling-interval is modified between the two profiler-start.
