// BUG(rsc): Profiles are incomplete and inaccurate on NetBSD and OS X.
// See http://golang.org/issue/6047 for details.

// A Profile is a collection of stack traces showing the call sequences
// that led to instances of a particular event, such as allocation.
// Packages can create and maintain their own profiles; the most common
// use is for tracking resources that must be explicitly closed, such as files
// or network connections.
//
// A Profile's methods can be called from multiple goroutines simultaneously.
//
// Each Profile has a unique name.  A few profiles are predefined:
//
//	goroutine    - stack traces of all current goroutines
//	heap         - a sampling of all heap allocations
//	threadcreate - stack traces that led to the creation of new OS threads
//	block        - stack traces that led to blocking on synchronization primitives
//
// These predefined profiles maintain themselves and panic on an explicit
// Add or Remove method call.
//
// The CPU profile is not available as a Profile.  It has a special API,
// the StartCPUProfile and StopCPUProfile functions, because it streams
// output to a writer during profiling.
