This should be something like

+Curl
binary = /usr/bin/curl
forks = 5
offset = 50%
step = 300
++ CurlSlow

++ CurlFast
step = 30

The '+Curl' section doesn't define a probe in itself because it has
subsections. You could use just 'Curl' instead of 'CurlSlow' above
for the first real probe name, but that makes it a bit more confusing.

See example 3 in smokeping_examples(7).
