About:
uftrace is a performance analysis tool that traces function calls within C, C++, and Rust applications. It builds a detailed execution graph, visualizing the relationships and timing between functions. This allows developers to pinpoint performance bottlenecks and understand complex code flow without manual instrumentation.
Key Features:
  • Visualizes function call graphs and timing
  • Supports C, C++, Rust, and Go
  • Provides replay and script-based analysis
  • Low overhead tracing with kernel integration
Use Cases:
  • Identifying performance bottlenecks in compiled applications
  • Understanding legacy codebases and execution flow
  • Analyzing function relationships in complex systems
Alternatives:
  • gprof – gprof is a classic profiler, but uftrace provides a more detailed dynamic call graph visualization with less setup.
  • perf – perf is a powerful Linux profiler focused on system-wide events, whereas uftrace specializes in granular function-level tracing.
