🌟 What is Grafana Pyroscope?

Grafana Pyroscope is an open source continuous profiling platform. It will help you:

  • Find performance issues and bottlenecks in your code
  • Use high-cardinality tags/labels to analyze your application
  • Resolve issues with high CPU utilization
  • Track down memory leaks
  • Understand the call tree of your application
  • Auto-instrument your code to link profiling data to traces

🔥 Pyroscope Live Demo

🎉 Features

  • Minimal CPU overhead
  • Horizontally scalable
  • Efficient compression, low disk space requirements
  • Can handle high-cardinality tags/labels
  • Calculate the performance "diff" between various tags/labels and time periods
  • Advanced analysis UI

💻 Quick Start: Run Pyroscope Locally

Homebrew

brew install pyroscope-io/brew/pyroscope
brew services start pyroscope

Docker

docker run -it -p 4040:4040 grafana/pyroscope
