2. Profiling?
● Recording / analyzing timing information about
program execution
● General case code profilers record data by line,
sub, source file, etc. - inclusive vs. exclusive
timings
● Domain-specific profilers record data about
specific event types (e.g. SQL queries)

3. Some Ways Are More Equal Than Others
