  # {Appsignal::GarbageCollectionProfiler} wraps Ruby's `GC::Profiler` to be
  # able to track garbage collection time for multiple transactions, while
  # constantly clearing `GC::Profiler`'s total_time to make sure it doesn't
  # leak memory by keeping garbage collection run samples in memory.

    # gets added to `@total_time`, after which `GC::Profiler.clear` is called
    # to prevent it from leaking memory. A class-level lock is used to make
    # sure garbage collection time is never counted more than once.
    #
    # Whenever `@total_time` gets above two billion milliseconds (about 23
    # days), it's reset to make sure the result fits in a signed 32-bit
    # integer.
