Grafana Pyroscope - Continuous Profiling

Docs: https://grafana.com/docs/pyroscope/latest/

Continuous profiling aggregation system — understand resource usage down to source code line numbers.

Instrumentation Methods

Three ways to send profiles to Pyroscope:

1. Grafana Alloy (preferred): eBPF auto-instrumentation, no code changes
2. SDK: Push profiles directly from your application
3. SDK → Alloy: SDK sends to Alloy's pyroscope.receive_http, Alloy forwards to Pyroscope
