dandavison / Chronologer

Visualize changes in program benchmark timings over git commit history.

This tool uses https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine for the benchmarking.

Getting started

Install via

pip3 install -r requirements.txt
pip3 install .

First example: chronologer tests/chronologer.yaml and then open the produced tests/index.html. For your own project, take tests/chronologer.yaml as a starting point. Some hints: avoid outputs inside the repository you are trying to profile; your to be profiled executable must be statically linked, as they get copied into a separate output directory.

Hints

• chronologer requires a clean git repository at every commit. One way to do so, without modifying the .gitignore file, is to add the ignore list in .git/info/exclude.
