Profiling

Profiles can be generated in the google perftools format (.pprof). Profiles are generated using the go benchmarking facility:

go test -bench cpu
go test -bench mem

See benchmark_test.go to view the different profiles. By default profile results are output to tmp.

To visualize the profiles, you will need to install perftools (brew install google-perftools on osx).

go tool pprof --pdf (which go-mdism) tmp/cpu.pprof  > test.pdf

Todo

• Make profiling simpler. Maybe have a makefile that allows for a simple make profile-cpu that automatically generates and opens the results in your browser.
