strong-cpu-profiler

Provides bindings for the v8 profiler in node.js

• Version 2.0.0 - Compatible with nodejs v0.11 and upwards.
• Version 1.0.0 - Compatible with nodejs v0.10.

Master is upto date with node v0.11 and is not compatible with v0.10. For a 0.10v compatible checkout the release/1.0.0 branch.

Installation

npm install strong-cpu-profiler

We now include node v0.10 binaries for a number of platforms. During the install, node-gyp will attempt to build the module for your platform. If it fails (see builderror.log), the module will still be installed, but will attempt to load up an appropriate pre-built binary for your platform if there is one available.

Usage

var profiler = require('strong-cpu-profiler');

API

profiler.startProfiling([name])                   // start cpu profiling
var cpuProfile = profiler.stopProfiling([name])   // stop cpu profiling

Or with capturing samples when profiling

profiler.startProfiling([name], true)                   // start cpu profiling
var cpuProfile = profiler.stopProfiling([name])   // stop cpu profiling

Thanks

Danny Coates for starting the project and maintaining it for several years.
