So what is ngx_google_perftools_module?
I found nothing about it in the wiki.

The module enable google_perftools profiler for workers.
./configure --with-google_perftools_module
nginx.conf:
google_perftools_profiles /path/to/profile;
profiles will be in /path/to/profile.<worker_pid>

Got it.
I’m looking into it on google.
Thanks, Igor. 
Chinese guys always search, ask, search, ask, finally get it.
But don’t share, just tell everyone have got it…
Though I am Chinese, I don’t know why.
Someone say maybe because English is not our mother language, it’s not
easy
to describe something.
But in Chinese language, I also see this funny fact.
I think we should open mind to share result.
From Chinese proverb: my hands would also be fragrant when I send
people
flowers

any examples?
thanks
Sorry for being a bit off topic on this maillist.
Hi, bianbian
Interesting comment. But I have to point out, I think you are going a
bit too far based on what you see from the replied from Cherife.I
believe Cherife is still searching and learning this new feature of
nginx, and that is why he did not follow up with more comments.
On the other hand, I agree with you on the general behavior of Chinese
society nowadays. I think it is all caused by the lack of intellectual
property protection. If you share something, some people just
shamelessly grab it and never say a word to express their thanks. In
some of worst cases, they might even laugh at your stupidity in
sharing it.
Things will get better for sure, and at least the new generation of
Chinese, like you and me, are realizing more and more of this problem,
right?

ssi filter takes about 3.6%.
In 0.6.29 the charset filter was optimized and now it takes 2% less.

how to use pprof.

Yep, but not every Chinese, just few, IMHO.

OK, OK, we should stop here, all right? Here is nginx list.

It’s me whom asked about this new google_perftools_profiles module.
I didn’t report any new issue, why?
I did get some info about this module, I believe that everyone could get
the
same or even more, for I’m not feeling so smart myself.
Besides, life is not easy, as in the mail signature of Gentoo
[email protected].
I must work hard, I have to deal with those dirty things. How about you?
And I don’t think I’m up on this module. I’m just a normal user, not a
code developer.
I need more time to learn about it.
What would you suggest me to report in this case? Continue asking?
Less complaint, more contribution. We’ll still remember you, for you’re
an hero then.
Sorry for my offing topic.
Comments on my words, not about nginx, if any, please reply directly to
me, not list.
Thanks.
