AOT Snapshot Size Profiling
The VM supports profiling the size of AOT snapshots by leveraging the object-graph based file format introduced by V8.
Recording a profile
To generate a snapshot profile, simply pass the --write-v8-snapshot-profile-to=<filename>
flag to gen_snapshot
.
The profile will be written in JSON format to the requested file.
Make sure to use the ".heapsnapshot" extension for the file to open it in Chrome DevTools.
Examining a profile in Chrome
Open Chrome DevTools, navigate to the "Memory" tab, right-click on the "Profiles" panel, click Load..." and select the snapshot profile file. See https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/memory-problems/heap-snapshots for details on how to use the tool.
Examining a profile programmatically
A Dart library to parse the snapshot profile format is provided in pkg/vm/lib/v8_snaphsot_profile.dart
.
The dart2js_info
package has some useful code for calculating retainers and other graph statistics.
