Original article title is "plprofiler – Getting a Handy Tool for Profiling Your PL/pgSQL Code." What is the implication behind the title used here, "If you still write stored procedures in a Database, you may need a profiler"?
We reverted the title. Submitted title was "If you still write stored procedures in a Database, you may need a profiler", which broke the site guidelines.
Submitters: accounts that editorialize titles eventually lose submission privileges, so please remember that the guidelines ask you to "use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize".
