Show HN: pylaprof – A Python library to profile your AWS lambda functions

In the last few weeks I worked on this library that allows you to profile functions or sections of Python code.
I started to work on it as I couldn't find a simple way to use 'external' profilers like py-spy in the context of AWS lambda functions nor was I satisfied with existing profiling libraries like pprofile.
The main idea was to create something that would make it straightforward to profile lambda functions and generate data for flamegraphs, but at the same time would be extensible to be used in other contexts and for other purposes.
It is now in a state I consider stable enough to be used in production and I would like to get some feedback before eventually releasing a v1.0.0 and freezing its API.
Let me know what you think :)
