-/// A wrapper around https://github.com/AtheMathmo/cpuprofiler
+/// A wrapper around google_cpu_profiler.
 ///
-/// It can be used to capture sampling profiles of sections of code.
-/// It is not exactly out-of-the-box, as it relies on gperftools.
-/// See the docs for the crate for more!
+/// Usage:
+/// 1. Install gpref_tools (https://github.com/gperftools/gperftools), probably packaged with your Linux distro.
+/// 2. Build with `cpu_profiler` feature.
+/// 3. Tun the code, the *raw* output would be in the `./out.profile` file.
+/// 4. Install pprof for visualization (https://github.com/google/pprof).
+/// 5. Use something like `pprof -svg target/release/ra_cli ./out.profile` to see the results.
+///
+/// For example, here's how I run profiling on NixOS:
+///
+/// ```bash
+/// $ nix-shell -p gperftools --run \
+///     'cargo run --release -p ra_cli -- parse < ~/projects/rustbench/parser.rs > /dev/null'
+/// ```
