Is there a profiler for Janet?

[MaxGyver83]

If there is none, could this be possible as an external module or would this need to go into the Janet interpreter itself?

Depending on the granularity you're looking for, hyperfine might work as a rough benchmarker. If you're trying to attribute cost centers to individual functions, I don't know of any existing way to do this. I think that you'd need probes inside the Janet vm on every function call?

You can profile individual functions yourself, but I don't think there's anything that will give you automatic attribution right now.

Somewhat along these lines, of interest might be:

• janet-profiling
• spork/test's timeit and timeit-loop

janet-profiling is great! Thank you.

So sad that Google doesn't show me this project when I search for janet profiler or janet profiling or even janet lang profiler or janet lang profiling!
