+\subsection{Suspend/Resume profiler}
+\label{suspendandresume}
+
+The Tracy profiler generates a lot of data, especially when used with long-running applications.
+For example, a one-hour application run can produce a trace exceeding 16 Gb!
+To minimize unnecessary memory consumption, you can suspend Tracy's profiling using the macro \texttt{TracySuspend} until you reach the section of code you wish to profile.
+When profiling needs to resume, use the macro \texttt{TracyResume}.
+To determine whether Tracy is currently active, use the macro \texttt{TracyIsActive}.
+
+\begin{bclogo}[
+noborder=true,
+couleur=black!5,
+logo=\bcbombe
+]{Important}
+The macros \texttt{TracySuspend} and \texttt{TracyResume} must be used within the same zones or frames (ideally outside of them). Otherwise, the trace may become incorrect.
+\end{bclogo}
+

 \subsection{Lua support}
 
 To profile Lua code using Tracy, include the \texttt{public/tracy/TracyLua.hpp} header file in your Lua wrapper and execute \texttt{tracy::LuaRegister(lua\_State*)} function to add instrumentation support.
