 * In order to not affect main results we perform a separate run if any diagnoser is used. That's why it might take more time to execute benchmarks.
 * MemoryDiagnoser:
-	* Mono currently [does not](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40234948/how-to-get-the-number-of-allocated-bytes-in-mono) expose any api to get the number of allocated bytes. That's why our Mono users will get `?` in Allocated column.
 	* In order to get the number of allocated bytes in cross platform way we are using `GC.GetAllocatedBytesForCurrentThread` which recently got [exposed](https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/pull/12489) for netcoreapp1.1. That's why BenchmarkDotNet does not support netcoreapp1.0 from version 0.10.1.
 	* MemoryDiagnoser is `99.5%` accurate about allocated memory when using default settings or Job.ShortRun (or any longer job than it).
