What are the advantages you see over using the `go pprof` toolchain?
https://blog.golang.org/profiling-go-programs https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/pprof/ https://golang.org/pkg/runtime/pprof/
I'm using it to measure the execution time of all my HTTP routes (and other important code paths) to track down potential bottlenecks in the application (and it helped me detect a goroutine that didn't exit properly in a certain cases)
It's designed to have as little as possible overhead (as it's meant to be used in production code)
