-timings of the various components that made up a web request (e.g. the SQL
-queries executed and their execution timings).
+## Sherlock
+Sherlock is a custom profiling tool built into GitLab. Sherlock is _only_
+available when running GitLab in development mode _and_ when setting the
+environment variable `ENABLE_SHERLOCK` to a non empty value. For example:

-## ActiveRecord Query Trace
-
-This Gem adds backtraces for every ActiveRecord query in the Rails console. This
-can be useful to track down where a query was executed. Because this Gem adds
-quite a bit of noise (5-10 extra lines per ActiveRecord query) it's disabled by
-default. To use this Gem you'll need to set `ENABLE_QUERY_TRACE` to a non empty
-file before starting GitLab. For example:
-
-    ENABLE_QUERY_TRACE=true bundle exec rails s
-
-## rack-lineprof
-
-This is a Gem that can trace the execution time of code on a per line basis.
-Because this Gem can add quite a bit of overhead it's disabled by default. To
-enable it, set the environment variable `ENABLE_LINEPROF` to a non-empty value.
-For example:
-
-    ENABLE_LINEPROF=true bundle exec rails s
-
-Once enabled you'll need to add a query string parameter to a request to
-actually profile code execution. The name of the parameter is `lineprof` and
-should be set to a regular expression (minus the starting/ending slash) used to
-select what files to profile. To profile all files containing "foo" somewhere in
-the path you'd use the following parameter:
-
-    ?lineprof=foo
-
-Or when filtering for files containing "foo" and "bar" in their path:
-
-    ?lineprof=foo|bar
-
-Once set the profiling output will be displayed in your terminal.
