Use slices of pointers in pprofile (#11339)

<!--Ex. Fixing a bug - Describe the bug and how this fixes the issue.
Ex. Adding a feature - Explain what this achieves.-->
#### Description

All these slices of values have a potential to store large amounts of
data, and should therefore be slices of pointers.

<!-- Issue number if applicable -->
#### Link to tracking issue
Fixes #11281
