[tbb-dev] SELFRANDO_write_layout_file enabled intentionally?

Hi,

start-tor-browser sets the SELFRANDO_write_layout_file environment variable to an empty string, which *enables* [1] the creation of the 7 MB /tmp/<PID>.mlf layout file. This adds 2 seconds of startup time on my system.

Would it make sense to *disable* it for alpha/stable builds? If so, the export line in start-tor-browser should be removed. (People who really want the layout file for debugging could still enable it by running "SELFRANDO_write_layout_file= ./start-tor-browser".)
