+
+## Introduction
+
+Automatic Feedback Directed Optimization (AFDO) is a method for using sampling
+based profiles to guide optimizations. This is contrasted with other methods of
+FDO or profile-guided optimization (PGO) which use instrumented profiling.
+
+Unlike PGO (controlled by the `rustc` flags `-Cprofile-generate` and
+`-Cprofile-use`), a binary being profiled does not perform significantly worse,
+and thus it's possible to profile binaries used in real workflows and not
+necessary to construct artificial workflows.
+
+## Use
+
+In order to use AFDO, the target platform must be Linux running on an `x86_64`
+architecture with the performance profiler `perf` available. In addition, the
+external tool `create_llvm_prof` from [this repository] must be used.
+
+Given a Rust file `main.rs`, we can produce an optimized binary as follows:
+
+```shell
+rustc -O -Zdebug-info-for-profiling main.rs -o main
+perf record -b ./main
+create_llvm_prof --binary=main --out=code.prof
+rustc -O -Zprofile-sample-use=code.prof main.rs -o main2
+```
+
+The `perf` command produces a profile `perf.data`, which is then used by the
+`create_llvm_prof` command to create `code.prof`. This final profile is then
+used by `rustc` to guide optimizations in producing the binary `main2`.
