Chrome heap profiler start mode.

Starts heap profiling service that records sampled memory allocation
profile having each sample attributed with a callstack. The sampling
resolution is controlled with --memlog-sampling-rate flag. Recorded heap
dumps can be obtained at chrome://tracing [category:memory-infra] and
Disabled
chrome://memory-internals. This setting controls which processes will be
profiled since their start. To profile any given process at a later time use
chrome://memory-internals page. –
Android, Fuchsia
#memlog
Heap profiling sampling interval (in bytes).

Heap profiling service uses Poisson process to sample allocations.
Default value for the interval between samples is 1000000 (1MB). This
results in low noise for large and/or frequent allocations [size * frequency
>> 1MB]. This means that aggregate numbers [e.g. total size of malloc-ed
Default
objects] and large and/or frequent allocations can be trusted with high
fidelity. Lower intervals produce higher samples resolution, but come at a
cost of higher performance overhead. –
#memlog-sampling-rate
Heap profiling stack traces type.

By default heap profiling service records native stacks. A post-processing
step is required to symbolize the stacks. 'Native with thread names' adds
the thread name as the first frame of each native stack. It's also possible
Default
to record a pseudo stack using trace events as identifiers. It's also
possible to do a mix of both. –
