trace.cafe doesn't use sourcemaps
If sourcemaps are available devtools will use it to rename functions in the traces, but when uploaded to trace.cafe the sourcemaps never work. It would be much easier to use trace.cafe if it loaded sourcemaps to show unminified names.
Reading through the devtools frontend code it looks like sourcemaps come from the DebuggerModel: https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend/blob/2314ddcbfed2456a0477b9cb5e17c48ed3ae7708/front_end/panels/timeline/PerformanceModel.ts#L113C3-L113C3
So devtools itself would need to change not trace cafe?
In general, the behavior of the Perf panel in trace.cafe should be the same as if you open devtools on example.com and load a saved trace into that instance.
Everything is easy if you're viewing a freshly captured trace. But.. you can also trace a site, save it, open that same site in a new tab, load the trace there. And the location resolving (incl sourcemaps) shouldddddddd mostly work.
If not, we have some room to improve script matching etc.. But.. it's imperfect and we do risk matching against the wrong stuff. cc @and-oli who worked on location resolution.
