## Building a suitable binary
Modify the `Cargo.toml` file to add `debug = 1` to the `[profile.release]` block. It should look like this:
```
[profile.release]
lto = true
debug = 1
```
This adds the symbol information to the release binary but does not otherwise affect the performance.
The binary must also be built with frame pointers included so that the call graph can be captured by the profiler.
```
