My application is running on CentOS，and when I run curl localhost:port/debug/pprof/profile > some.pprof，and run go tool pprof some.pprof, it works. But When I use scp copying the some.pprof file to my mac and run go tool pprof some.pprof,it doesn't work any more,command top display only 1 line in which flat and sum both are 100% and the last row is the name of my application rather than the name of methods invoked. Isn't the pprof file cross platform or something I've misused?
as Adrian said, the binary is required for running pprof. So download the binary from server,put it into the same path on server, and it works
