What it shows

  • Samples stack traces at 100Hz with less than 2% compute performance overhead
  • Merges flame graph samples in memory to store days of profiling in megabytes
  • Pinpoints memory leaks and CPU hogs directly down to the source function name

The takeaway

Continuous profiling fills the gap between metrics and traces by surfacing line-by-line runtime waste.
