installer libprofiler.so

apt install libgoogle-perftools-dev

installer un meilleurs pprof (grace a golang)

apt install golang

GOPATH=$HOME/go go get github.com/google/pprof

On newer go version (since 1.17) gog get is deprecated. Try to use go install github.com/google/pprof@latest instead of go get github.com/google/pprof.

Be careful, an error may occur undefined os.UserConfigDir. In this case, you will have to update the go version or use an older version of pprof. see this ink. It seems that sudo apt install golang-go works :-)

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libprofiler.so CPUPROFILE=prof ./myexe
