CPU profiler gives no useful hotspot information

Open rockerbacon opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

Currently the profiler always shows the garbage collector as being the hotspot and doesn't give any information on actual user code. Using the V8 profiler with node --prof-cpu and loading the file into Chrome Dev-Tools suggests this is probably due to the top down interpretation of the profiler data, while a bottom up visualization yields more relevant results.
