What Hacker News says?
Shameless plug: We just launched Prodfiler last week -- it's continuous in-production profiling based on eBPF, handles C/C++/Go/Rust/JVM/Python/Perl/Ruby (with NodeJS and .net in the pipeline), and it does not require symbols on the machine, nor recompiles with framepointer, nor special JVM flags. https://prodfiler.com :-)
