+      IgProf is a fast and light weight profiler. It correctly handles
+      dynamically loaded shared libraries, threads and sub-processes started by
+      the application.  We have used it routinely with large C++ applications
+      consisting of many hundreds of shared libraries and thousands of symbols
+      from millions of source lines of code. It requires no special privileges
+      to run. The performance reports provide full navigable call stacks and
+      can be customised by applying filters. Results from any number of
+      profiling runs can be included. This means you can both dig into the
+      details and see the big picture from combined workloads.
