Nothing to crack me up like #pprof on a Monday morning

I've been using #pprof for a long time, but not until yesterday did I know about the "list" command. And wow, it is *amazing*. From the pprof terminal, just type "list" followed by the name of a function call the "top" command (or your flamegraph or whatever) shows as a top allocator, and you'll see exactly where in your code memory is allocated, and how much

Finally broke down to use #pprof to debug why some of my #Golang code was slow in a test. It quickly pointed me to a completely different part of the code than I was editing. The coverage report later pointed out another hard to spot bug.

It's days like this that I really enjoy developing in Go. The strong test integration is saving me countless hours of debugging hard to spot issues in the future.

I've been switching my laptop over the last week. Today got to install some old friends like #R and #ggplot2 along with the usual #golang env and check that #pprof is working.
