When I use it in this way, everything looks fine.(I just do not know why the documention is unwilling to include this):


PProf.Allocs.pprof()
6

Can you try it on julia 1.7.3?

7

I think it was renamed to simply pprof

Also, not sure why the suggestion to try 1.7.3. This was introduced in 1.8

8

Yes. The code in the pull request discussion that @Brian1 mentions was written when this feature was just being developed, and it was named to_pprof back then. It was changed to just pprof just a couple of weeks after that (in this commit), presumably to be consistent with the rest of PProf.jl.
