Fun Fact: The original implementation of gprof was by Susan Graham, a professor at UC Berkeley. Much of her research involves "compiler code generation and optimization. She and her students have built several interactive programming environments, yielding a variety of incremental analysis algorithms." [https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~graham/] One of these major projects is Harmonia, a framework for building language aware analysis tools. They are even working on adding developer tools like programming via voice!

I was wondering how is the comment above related to this lecture note.

@autumnust, I thought it was related. @Holladay gave some background to the tool gprof, which is the content of the slide and then extended that detail to what Professor Graham is doing currently.
