Nitpicking at this point, as I think that already conveys the necessary
info.  But, I think "Execution log recording" would sound more natural
than "The process record".  The mention of @var{id} twice looks
redundant, yet disconnected.  So I'd suggest:

Execution log recording was either started or stopped on an
inferior.  The @var{id} is the identifier of the thread group
corresponding to the affected inferior.
