Say that:
* VS Code may be used for viewing heap snapshots. Important because
  Chromium currently may *not* be used for this on Julia v1.11 and up:
  JuliaLang#54414
* Firefox can't be used.

The resulting heap snapshot file can be uploaded to chrome devtools to be viewed.
For more information, see the [chrome devtools docs](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/memory-problems/heap-snapshots/#view_snapshots).
An alternative for analyzing Chromium heap snapshots is with the VS Code extension
`ms-vscode.vscode-js-profile-flame`.

The Firefox heap snapshots are of a different format, and Firefox currently may
*not* be used for viewing the heap snapshots generated by Julia.
