--------------------------------------

We care a lot about performance and we try hard to keep Kamon's overhead as low as possible, but we couldn't succeed on
this matter without [YourKit's Java Profiler](http://www.yourkit.com/java/profiler/index.jsp). It is well known to be
one of the best profilers out there and they have been so kind to support us by providing a open source use license to
Kamon developers. Thanks YourKit! We highly appreciate your support and commitment to the open source community.
