Assuming that your local 127.0.0.1 address is aliased to "localhost.somedomain.com" in <code>/etc/hosts</code> and the certificates are issued for "localhost.somedomain.com", set <code>CERT_PATH</code> to the directory that contains <code></code> and <code></code> and:

<syntaxhighlight lang='bash'>
export CERT_PATH=/Users/ovidiu/some-project/config
go tool pprof -http 127.0.0.1:8080 -tls_cert ${CERT_PATH}/localhost.somedomain.com.chain.pem -tls_key ${CERT_PATH}/localhost.somedomain.com.key.pem https://localhost.somedomain.com:8443
