Even if the impact for one tracepoint is low, if all tracepoints are
enabled, eventually (considering that the number of tracepoints will
increase) just the data flow to the trace file will start to slow down
the guest.

But I'm not completely opposed to removing 'disable' keyword, for
example by turning all tracepoints off initially. Though then there
would be no way to trace the initialization activities.
