I just now happened to want to know how many channel sends a certain Go program made. 

This class of statistic would interesting for a Go runtime environment variable, akin to
GC tracing, to gather and report on program exit. "N send, N receive, ..."
Maybe K blocked or Z goroutines spawned, Z' still alive.

I don't think we're going to add something like this to existing packages, however there is #37112 for which a statistic like this would be appropriate.

I think in practice for this to not be terribly slow we would need to do something similar to what we do for allocations: accumulate the statistics per-P and flush them during a stats-reading STW operation.

Thank you for the responses @mknyszek and @MichaelTJones!

This zombie proposal has staggered along for seven years and can now die and find peace.

Bits to bits, atoms to atoms, I shall thus close this issue. Thank you.
