Profiling
=========
Bazaar has some built-in support for collecting and saving profiling
information. In the simpliest case, the --lsprof option can be used as
shown below::
bzr --lsprof ...
This will dump the profiling information to stdout before exiting.
Alternatively, the --lsprof-file option can be used to specify a filename
to save the profiling data into to. By default, profiling data saved to a
file is a pickled Python object making it possible to reload the data and
do with it what you will. For convenience though:
* if the filename ends in ".txt", it will be dumped in a text format.
* if the filename ends in ".callgrind", it will be converted to a format
loadable by the KCacheGrind visualization tool.
Here is an example of how to use the --lsprof-file option in combination
with KCacheGrind to visualize what the "status" command is doing::
bzr --lsprof-file status001.callgrind status
kcachegrind status001.callgrind &
.. Note:: bzr also has a --profile option that uses the hotshot profiler
instead of the lsprof profiler. The hotshot profiler can be useful
though the lsprof one is generally recommended. See
http://docs.python.org/lib/node795.html.
Note that to use --lsprof you must install the lsprof module, which you
can get with::
svn co http://codespeak.net/svn/user/arigo/hack/misc/lsprof
Profiling locks
---------------
Bazaar can log when locks are taken or released, which can help in
identifying unnecessary lock traffic. This is activated by the ``-Dlock``
global option.
This writes messages into ~/.bzr.log.
At present this only logs actions relating to the on-disk lockdir. It
doesn't describe actions on in-memory lock counters, or OS locks (which
are used for dirstate.)
