Re:Profiling Go Applications with Flamegraphs by emfree on Sunday March 11, 2018 @06:58PM (#16565182)
A nice writeup, thanks. There are a few variations on this workflow that I've found useful in practice; perhaps they'll be helpful to some folks:

- Linux perf can profile unmodified Go programs. This is handy when your application doesn't expose the /debug/pprof endpoint. (http://brendangregg.com/FlameGraphs/cpuflamegraphs.html#perf has detailed instructions)

- Recent versions of https://github.com/google/pprof include a flamegraph viewer in the web UI. This is handy when you want a line-level flamegraph instead of a function-level flamegraph.
