    Author here. You're probably already aware of this, but you can convert the `perf record` format to a format Clang understands: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#using-s…

    Sorry, what I meant is that when the application rerenders (digesting changes that have been made) it will re-evaluate the function to check if the result has changed. Polling the …

    I don't believe that browsers let uploads be gzipped, as it can't be sure that the server supports gzipped requests.
