+# This is a simple tool to enable the object allocation tracer.
+# When you have an object of unknown provenance, you can use this

+# = Important notice
+#
+# This is only for debugging purpose. Do not use this in production.
+# Require'ing this file immediately starts tracing the object allocation,

+#
+# = Usage
+#
+# 1. Add `require "objspace/trace"` into your code (or add `-robjspace/trace` into the command line)
+# 2. `p obj` will show the allocation site of `obj`
+#
+# Note: This redefines `Kernel#p` method, but not `Object#inspect`.
+#
+# = Examples
+#
+# 1: require "objspace/trace"

+# 3: obj = "str"
+# 4:
+# 5: p obj #=> "str" @ test.rb:3
