Description Jean-Michaël Celerier 2018-03-24 11:16:09 UTC

It would be nice if heaptrack had something akin to valgrind / callgrind's CALLGRIND_START/STOP_INSTRUMENTATION. 

Currently the "hotplug" feature is not very reliable: I don't see any allocations taking place at all when they are clearly happenning.

yep, I agree that this would make for a nice feature addition. 

could you open another bug for the issue you have with runtime attaching? If possible, explain how I could reproduce the issue to figure out what's going on since it seems to work fine for my tests.
