The actual profile data is collected by the code in runtime/cpuprof.go and runtime/profBuf.go. That data is generated 100 times per second. The code you are looking at in the runtime/pprof package is the code that is collecting that data, which is generated at interrupt time, and converting it into a format that can be reported to the user or the pprof program.
