I added a simple performance-measuring tool, `tools/time-ent`. It runs ent a couple of different ways, against a known entomologist-data branch (specified by a commit in the regular entomologist-data branch in this repo). That script gives a rough, over-all measurement of how long different ent commands take. More detailed information, including the call tree and flame graph, can be gathered like this: ``` $ perf record -g -F 999 ent tag 7e2a3a59fb6b77403ff1035255367607 $ perf script -F +pid > /tmp/test.perf ``` Then upload the `test.perf` file to the firefox visualizer at . A local visualizer would be nice, i'm sure there is one somewhere.
