+# Debug memory allocation
+
+## Build test file
+- 100 MB file: `if=/dev/random of=TESTFILE status=progress bs=1m count=100`
+
+## Steps
+
+1. `cargo install --features vendored-openssl cargo-instruments`  
+  Installs _cargo-instruments_ without needing OpenSSL (macOS shenanigans -.-)
+2. `cargo instruments -t Allocations (--release)`
+3. Find PID
+4. `kill -SIGINT [PID]` to stop gracefully without interrupting cargo-instruments.
+5. XCode instrument _Allocations_ opens up automatically
