Motivation: The Profiler was the only code path using scala.util.Sorting (via .sortBy and .sorted), pulling in 96KB of dead code into the native binary (88KB __text + 8KB __eh_frame) that is never exercised during normal evaluation. Modification: - Replace aggregated.toSeq.sortBy(-_.selfTimeNs) with java.util.Arrays.sort using a Comparator - Replace samples.sorted.apply(median) with in-place java.util.Arrays.sort followed by direct index access Result: Native binary __text reduced by 88KB, __eh_frame by 8KB. No behavioral change — Profiler output is identical.
