Description
`psrecord --plot 0.png --interval 0.1 "python -m timeit '2 * 2'"`
[![does not work][1]][1]
There's workaround with bash which works:
`python -m timeit '2 * 2' & psrecord --plot 1.png --interval 0.1 $!`

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported `psrecord --plot 0.png --interval 0.1 "python -m timeit '2 * 2'"` command and compare its behavior with the working bash workaround. Trace how psrecord launches and monitors a command; done means direct command startup produces a non-empty CPU and memory plot like the workaround.
