  <title>Clinic.js BubbleProf</title> - v{{version}}

  <code>clinic bubbleprof</code> helps you find asynchronous bottlenecks and debug event loop blocking.

  To run <code>clinic bubbleprof</code>

    <code>clinic bubbleprof -- node server.js</code>

  Once you exit (Ctrl-C) the process, your report will open in a browser window. You can disable this behavior:

    <code>clinic bubbleprof --open=false -- node server.js</code>

  If profiling on a server, it can be useful to only do data collection:

    <code>clinic bubbleprof --collect-only -- node server.js</code>

  You can then transfer the data and visualize it locally:

    <code>clinic bubbleprof --visualize-only PID.clinic-bubbleprof-sample</code>

  You can use the --autocannon flag to simulate load on your server.
  --autocannon accepts configuration for autocannon using "subarg" syntax:

    <code>clinic bubbleprof --autocannon [ -m POST /api/example ] -- node server.js</code>

  When configuring --autocannon, the $PORT environment variable contains the
  port your server is listening on:

    <code>clinic bubbleprof --autocannon [ -m POST 'http://localhost:$PORT/?\$page=1' ] -- node server.js</code>

  Note that dollar signs (`$`) appearing in the URL must be escaped (`\$`), else they
  will be treated as environment variables as well.

  --collect-only             Do not process data on termination
  --visualize-only datapath  Build or rebuild visualization from data
  --on-port                  Run a script when the server starts listening on a port.
  --autocannon               Run the autocannon benchmarking tool when the server starts listening on a port.
  --open                     Boolean to enable or disable your report opening in your web browser.
  --dest                     Destination for the collected data (default <code>.clinic/</code>).
  --stop-delay               Add a delay to close the process when a job is done through either `autocannon` or `on-port` flag (milliseconds)
  --name                     The --name flag sets a name for the output data, allowing you to replace existing reports without generating new ones. Example: <code>.clinic/node-19-test.clinic-flame</code>
