Benchmarks
We can add in a benchmark test which will allow us to profile a section of code.
Creating Profiles from Benchmark Test
| Code Block |
|---|
go test -bench=. -run=x -benchmem -memprofile mem.prof -cpuprofile cpu.prof -benchtime=10s > 0.bench |
After running the benchmark we can use the outputted profiles with pprof.
Adding Profiling to your Application
