This works for me:

    twistd --savestats --profiler cprofile -n --profile prof.stats web

prof.stats is written and contains a binary dump of the profile data. 
This also works:

    twistd --profiler cprofile -n --profile prof.stats web

and produces a prof.stats containing a plaintext dump of the profile.

I tested on the 8.2 release branch, which should be the same as the 8.2 
release.  I used Python 2.6 on Ubuntu 9.10.
