public class ExampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    ProfilerRecorder mainThreadTimeRecorder;

    void OnEnable()
    {
        mainThreadTimeRecorder = new ProfilerRecorder(ProfilerCategory.Internal, "Main Thread", 15);
        mainThreadTimeRecorder.Start();
    }

    void OnDisable()
    {
        mainThreadTimeRecorder.Dispose();

When you don't need data to be collected use Stop to detach recorder from counter or marker. And Dispose to free unmanaged resources.
