Feature request: memory flame graphs

Open schneiderfelipe opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

As far as I can tell, there are no tool that can report a memory flame graph from Julia code. That could be very useful for tracking memory usage in a very easy way.

One could do what the manual suggests, or use TimerOutputs.jl, which are all very precise and useful, but it would be nice to have a solution that is 1. automated, 2. does not require modifying code and 3. is simple and visual. A flame graph seems to be just that.

https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/33467 could use a volunteer to push it over the finish line!

I think the starting point should be https://github.com/timholy/FlameGraphs.jl/issues/52
