### Troubleshooting

- It is recommended to pass `-Cllvm-args=-pgo-warn-missing-function` during the
`-Cprofile-use` phase. LLVM by default does not warn if it cannot find
profiling data for a given function. Enabling this warning will make it
easier to spot errors in your setup.

- There is a [known issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/7416) in
Cargo prior to version 1.39 that will prevent PGO from working correctly. Be
sure to use Cargo 1.39 or newer when doing PGO.
