How can I enable CSS selector profiling in Chrome

I have read an interesting article about css selector profiling but I haven't found any way how to actually enable this feature. Is there something I am completely missing ?

Just in case anyone still needs the CSS selector profiler, you can find it in the Web Inspector of, I believe, any Webkit-based browser except Safari (Falkon (formerly known as Qupzilla) is just one example).

This Answer is no longer valid. Please refer to Johns answer.

Im on Chrome 18.something Dev and its there under Developer Tools. Click the wrench / Tools / Developer Tools and then click the Profile tab....now to learn what it all means ;)

The CSS Selector Profiler was removed from Chrome 30:

CSS selector matching is now reasonably fast for the absolute majority of common selectors that used to be slow at the time of the profiler implementation. This time is also included into the Timeline "Recalculate Style" event.

As such, I believe the CSS selector profiler is not as useful as it [might have been] used to and can safely be dropped. This will also reduce the fraction of developers trying to micro-optimize already fast selectors.
