Module `Nested_profile.Profile`

This is a library for time profiling sequential or Async code.

Wrap interesting places in your code with calls to profile:

open! Nested_profile;;

profile "do_thing" (fun () ->
  profile "foo" foo;
  profile "bar" bar;
  ...)

Then each top-level call to profile will output a hierarchical display of all profile calls beneath it:

      1.284s -- do_thing
        209.266ms -- foo
        1.074s -- bar

module Sync_or_async : sig ... end: A Sync_or_async.t specifies whether the computation being profiled is synchronous or asynchronous.

val profile : ?⁠hide_if_less_than:Core_kernel.Time_ns.Span.t -> 'a Sync_or_async.t -> Core_kernel.Sexp.t Core_kernel.Lazy.t -> (unit -> 'a) -> 'a

profile sync_or_async message f measures the time taken to run f, and outputs the result. Nested calls to profile are displayed as a tree. Use Async to profile Async code. It is safe to nest calls to profile inside calls to profile Async. profile Async does have some restrictions in order to get valid results:

a nested call to profile Async must exit before its parent does
there cannot be multiple sibling calls to profile Async running concurrently

val output_profile : (string -> unit) Core_kernel.ref: profile calls output_profile to display the profile to the user. It is print_string by default.

module Start_location : sig ... end

val start_location : Start_location.t Core_kernel.ref: start_location specifies where in a profile the start time is rendered.

val backtrace : unit -> Core_kernel.Sexp.t list option: Return the current stack of profile messages, sorted inner profile frames first. Returns None if should_profile is false.
