     1  The pprof in this directory is adapted from the pprof used inside Google
     2  for C++, Java, and Go programs. Because it was developed for that broader
     3  context, it is overgeneralized when used here for the specific use case
     4  of profiling standard Go programs. However, we've left the abstractions
     5  intact in order to share updates between this copy and Google's internal one.
     6  
     7  Please do not take the level of abstraction in this program as an example
     8  to follow in your own.
