// Package pprof serves via its HTTP server runtime profiling data
// in the format expected by the pprof visualization tool.
//
// The package is typically only imported for the side effect of
// registering its HTTP handlers.
// The handled paths all begin with /debug/pprof/.
// As of Go 1.22, all the paths must be requested with GET.
//
// To use pprof, link this package into your program:
//
//	import _ "net/http/pprof"
//
// If your application is not already running an http server, you
// need to start one. Add "net/http" and "log" to your imports and
// the following code to your main function:
//
//	go func() {
//		log.Println(http.ListenAndServe("localhost:6060", nil))
//	}()
//
// By default, all the profiles listed in [runtime/pprof.Profile] are
// available (via [Handler]), in addition to the [Cmdline], [Profile], [Symbol],
// and [Trace] profiles defined in this package.
// If you are not using DefaultServeMux, you will have to register handlers
// with the mux you are using.
//
// # Parameters
//
// Parameters can be passed via GET query params:
//
//   - debug=N (all profiles): response format: N = 0: binary (default), N > 0: plaintext
//   - gc=N (heap profile): N > 0: run a garbage collection cycle before profiling
//   - seconds=N (allocs, block, goroutine, heap, mutex, threadcreate profiles): return a delta profile
//   - seconds=N (cpu (profile), trace profiles): profile for the given duration
//
// # Usage examples
//
// Use the pprof tool to look at the heap profile:
//
//	go tool pprof http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/heap
//
// Or to look at a 30-second CPU profile:
//
//	go tool pprof http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/profile?seconds=30
//
// Or to look at the goroutine blocking profile, after calling
// [runtime.SetBlockProfileRate] in your program:
//
//	go tool pprof http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/block
//
// Or to look at the holders of contended mutexes, after calling
// [runtime.SetMutexProfileFraction] in your program:
//
//	go tool pprof http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/mutex
//
// The package also exports a handler that serves execution trace data
// for the "go tool trace" command. To collect a 5-second execution trace:
//
//	curl -o trace.out http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/trace?seconds=5
//	go tool trace trace.out
//
// To view all available profiles, open http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/
// in your browser.
//
