// StackSamplingProfiler periodically stops a thread to sample its stack, for
// the purpose of collecting information about which code paths are
// executing. This information is used in aggregate by UMA to identify hot
// and/or janky code paths.

// Sample StackSamplingProfiler usage:
//
//   // Create and customize params as desired.
//   base::StackStackSamplingProfiler::SamplingParams params;
//
//   // To process the profiles, use a custom ProfileBuilder subclass:
//   class SubProfileBuilder :
//       public base::StackSamplingProfiler::ProfileBuilder{...}
//
//   // On Android the |sampler| is not implemented in base. So, client can pass
//   // in |sampler| to use while profiling.

//   // ... work being done on the target thread here ...
//   profiler.Stop();  // optional, stops collection before complete per params
//
// The default SamplingParams causes stacks to be recorded in a single profile
// at a 10Hz interval for a total of 30 seconds. All of these parameters may be
// altered as desired.
//
// When a call stack profile is complete, or the profiler is stopped,
// ProfileBuilder's OnProfileCompleted function is called from a thread created
// by the profiler.
