Run it like `pprof -http : your_profile.out` and it will open a browser with a really nice interactive flamegraph (way better than the Perl version), plus a call graph, source line profiling, top functions, etc. etc.
It's so much better. Don't use the Perl version. I should probably write a post showing how to do this.
Another also-much-better alternative is Samply (https://github.com/mstange/samply) which uses the Firefox Profiler as a GUI. I don't like it quite as much as pprof but it's clearly still much better than what's in this article:
Use the Go version of pprof: https://github.com/google/pprof
