What
This PR adds a new flag, which, when enabled, allows for remote profiling using
net/http/pprof
package, with the handlers mounted to the metrics server.By default the flag is disabled, to ensure that the change is backwards-compatible.
Why
This allows for ad-hoc and continuous (e.g. using https://pyroscope.io/) profiling, which is useful for finding memory / cpu bottlenecks.
