This library implements subscribers for the tracing
crate that facilitate
profiling of one-shot program executions. That is, this is not intended for profiling of long-running programs.
tracing-profile
depends on tracing-subscriber
and
implements layers that measure, record, and display timing information in the span graph. The implemented
tracing_subscriber::Layer
records the time a span took to execute, along with any user supplied metadata and
information necessary to construct a span graph from the resulting logs.
Note that if #[tracing::instrument]
is used, the skip_all
argument is recommended. Omitting this will result in all
the function arguments being included as fields.
The library exposes two layers that output the information in different ways.
perf_counters
enables PrintPerfCountersLayer
layer. Currently performance counters work for Linux only.The CsvLayer
writes profiling information to a CSV file, which can be analyzed later by reconstructing the span graph.
$ cargo test
$ cat /tmp/output.csv

3,1,119802,child span2,src/lib.rs,2,{"field2":"value2"}

The PrintTreeLayer
processes the profiling information in the running process and prints the timing information in a
human-readable format. The output structures the span graph as a tree.
$ cargo test -- --nocapture
root span [ 112.67µs | 100.00% ]
├── child span1 [ 2.63µs | 2.33% ] { field1 = value1 }
└── child span2 [ 64.29µs | 57.06% ] { field2 = value2 }
├── child span3 [ 1.88µs | 1.66% ] { field3 = value3 }
└── child span4 [ 1.67µs | 1.48% ] { field4 = value4 }
The PrintPerfCountersLayer
at the construction receives a vector of events (perf_event::events::Event
) and their names. During execution for each span the number of the given events of each type is summed. The results are printed to the standard output in a form of a table.

fn make_spans() {
let span = debug_span!("root span");
let _scope1 = span.enter();
// child spans 1 and 2 are siblings
let span2 = debug_span!("child span1", field1 = "value1");
let scope2 = span2.enter();
drop(scope2);
let span3 = debug_span!("child span2", field2 = "value2");
let _scope3 = span3.enter();

#[test]
fn all_layers() {
tracing_subscriber::registry()
.with(PrintTreeLayer::default())
.with(CsvLayer::new("/tmp/output.csv"))
.init();
make_spans();
}
Using PrintTreeConfig
you can configure color and aggregation/hiding thresholds.
#[test]
fn all_layers() {
tracing_subscriber::registry()
.with(PrintTreeLayer::new(PrintTreeConfig {
attention_above_percent: 25.0,
relevant_above_percent: 2.5,
hide_below_percent: 1.0,
display_unaccounted: false
}))
.with(CsvLayer::new("/tmp/output.csv"))
.init();
make_spans();
}
