What is your favourite profiling tool for C++?

• tracy

  58 7,945 9.6 C++

  Frame profiler

I've not actually used Superluminal, but I use Tracy for similar reasons. It's free though (and, importantly, open source).

• omnitrace

  3 261 7.3 C++

  Omnitrace: Application Profiling, Tracing, and Analysis

  

Omnitrace. Similar concept to VTune and Nsight Systems from AMD: profiling and/or tracing for CPU-only or CPU+GPU workloads: sampling, binary instrumentation, etc. Has more CPU-based information than Nsight Systems and supports binary rewrites for instrumentation which VTune lacks (runtime instrumentation only). Also supports causal profiling like COZ. Supports Python-based analysis/manipulation/filtering/comparison of traces and profiles. Other great tools: HPCToolkit, Caliper, and TAU.

• InfluxDB

• hotspot

  16 3,896 9.3 C++

  The Linux perf GUI for performance analysis.

  

perf with Hotspot 👌

• heaptrack

  19 3,051 8.9 C++

  A heap memory profiler for Linux

  

I know it is not a profiler, but it is so criminally underrated that I decided to share it: https://github.com/KDE/heaptrack

• optick

  7 2,869 0.0 C#

  C++ Profiler For Games

Does anyone here have experience with Optick: https://github.com/bombomby/optick ? It looks great but I haven't got the chance to try it. Was wondering how it compares to the other tools listed here.
