If you are using pprof via go tool pprof, what's your go env output?
If you run pprof from GitHub, what's the Git revision?

--> Neither: it might have been pre-installed on my version of rodete.

What operating system and processor architecture are you using?

4.17.0-3rodete2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.17.17-1rodete2 (2018-08-28) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v3 @ 3.50GHz

What did you do?

I was getting data that didn't look right from a C++ program, so I tried to change the sampling frequency by setting HEAP_PROFILE_TIME_INTERVAL=10 when running my program. I also tried an interval of 2. Now when I run:

pprof -http=localhost:9999 $envoy "$out_prefix"*

If possible, provide a recipe for reproducing the error.

--> this is possible but it involves building https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy which has a complex build process.

Attaching a profile you are trying to analyze is good.
--> working on it

What did you expect to see?

chrome window showing memory profile. I do get this when I don't specify the time interval. However then I get data that I don't believe. Specifically I think I'm only seeing a small number of the allocations I expect.

What did you see instead?

pprof: problem fetching source profiles: inconsistent samples type count: 2 != 4
