24 alternatives to p99.chat – the assistant for software performance optimization
Hi HN! We’re the team behind CodSpeed (https://codspeed.io), a continuous performance testing tool. Today, we're really excited to launch our new product: p99 (https://p99.chat), an assistant for software performance optimization. Through CodSpeed, we have been working with hundreds of projects doing performance optimization. What struck us was how fragmented the tooling landscape is. You would identify a performance regression in their CI, or worse, in production, then disappear into a rabbit hole of benchmarking frameworks, sampling profilers, memory profilers,…

Hi HN! We’re Arthur and Adrien from CodSpeed. We’re building a tool measuring software performance before any production deployment, catching performance regressions before they hit production environments and reporting performance changes directly in Pull Request comments. It’s kind of like Codecov but for performance measurement. Today, the go to solution to measure performance is probably to use an APM(DataDog, Sentry, …), continuously analyzing your production environment. However, since those solutions are operating on real environments they need real users to experience poor…

Bullet▲240Hi HN, excited to be sharing this with you guys today. TL;DR: Bullet is a fast coding agent. At our company, we were burning hours waiting on agent runs. The models weren’t the problem. The agent loops around them were slow (unnecessary planning, oversized context, repeated searches, and serial tool calls). So we built Bullet as a passion project, the goal being to help you iterate faster, without giving up quality: - It automatically selects the model and reasoning level for each prompt. - It runs independent searches, reads, and commands in parallel. - It uses targeted code search instead…

Hey HN. We’re Jay and Vadim from Highlight.io (https://highlight.io). We’re building an open source [1] monitoring platform for web applications. Today we’re excited to be sharing a performance tool we’ve been working on, which helps you inspect the latency of code execution from the client to the server. As engineers at past startups, we often had to debug slow queries, poor load times, inconsistent errors, etc... While tools like Jaegar [2] helped us inspect server-side performance, we had no way to tie user events to the traces we were inspecting. In other words, although we had…

Bindly▲76Hi HN, I’m a product designer by background, not a traditional software engineer. Over the last year, tools like Claude and ChatGPT completely changed how I work. I started with small internal tools, and now I’m “vibe coding” multiple highly personalized apps. As I iterated between Claude Code (implementation) and ChatGPT (ideation / thinking), I kept running into the same problem. To think clearly, I had to repeatedly re-explain: - what the code currently does, - what changed recently, - and why certain decisions were made. That re-summarization step became a real bottleneck. So I…

A recent HackerNews comment - “For one programmer's hourly cost, you could run 4000 CPU cores continuously. Can there really be no practical way to apply thousands of cores to boosting the programmer's productivity?” https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19339467 This is what we have come up with. The current productivity tools - Slack, Asana, Trello, Facebook Workplace, etc. - are great, but lack direct access to your code. Building a tool directly around the code makes it more powerful for software developers: CoDiff. https://codiff.com The foundation of CoDiff is a…

Hey HN! I made a completely open sourced alternative to Weights and Biases with (insert cringe) blazingly fast performance (yes we use rust and clickhouse) Weights and Biases is super unperformant, their logger blocks user code... logging should not be blocking, yet they got away with it. We do the right thing by being non blocking. Would love any thoughts / feedbacks / roasts etc

We made ParallelGPT - a tool that lets you bulk process chatGPT on a spreadsheet UI instead of one-by-one conversation style. Hopefully this saves you time and hassle - especially if you want to build an operational process around it and want to collaborate your team. You can give it a quick spin on this live demo playground: https://demo.rowy.io/table/parallelGpt#sideDrawer=%22table-i... I am the co-founder of Rowy(https://www.rowy.io), an open-source low-code platform, and we built ParallelGPT as a fun showcase of what you can do with low-code. There are tons…

Earlier this year, I took a month to reexamine my coding habits and rethink some past design choices. I hope to rewrite and improve my FOSS libraries this year, and I needed answers to a few questions first. Perhaps some of these questions will resonate with others in the community, too. - Are coroutines viable for high-performance work? - Should I use SIMD intrinsics for clarity or drop to assembly for easier library distribution? - Has hardware caught up with vectorized scatter/gather in AVX-512 & SVE? - How do secure enclaves & pointer tagging differ on Intel, Arm, & AMD? - What's…

Hi, we are working on a tool for speeding up test runs, by skipping tests unaffected by code changes. Effectivly, Saving 80-95% of the time, by skipping 80-95% of tests. We started a few months ago, and have managed to get into a few production CI systems. All our prospects and users are on holiday right now. So we decided to repackage and open-source for local test running. available here (https://github.com/nabaz-io/nabaz) under MIT license. One line change: pytest -v -> nabaz test --cmdline "pytest -v" Stalk us on GitHub, or just Star us. Ask questions, we'll answer in…

I wanted to know how fast a 26B mixture-of-experts model could run on a desktop CPU with no GPU. Got ~40 tok/s single-stream (lossless) and ~124 batched. The surprising part was the byte budget: for this model you compress the output head (32% of per-token bytes), not the experts (16%). The writeup has the bandwidth roofline and the dead-ends; the repo has the reproducible recipe. Happy to answer questions. Repo: https://github.com/arun-prasath2005/gemma4-cpu-moe

Imagine you have to make a little change in all your microservices, like changing a line in Dockerfile, but you have 50 microservices, ouch right! The PRs, pipelines, reviews... I have created a dashboard with a chatbot where you can simply ask "Update all repositories with alpine base image version X to Y", and then click next a bunch of time and see a list of PRs with their pipeline status. Hi friends I'm Daniel, the creator of Infra as AI. I was laid off from my SRE role a couple of months ago, and decided to build something that could always help me at work. My job was to keep the lights…

I'm building an AI platform, FlowChai and found a neat use case for it today that I thought would be useful to HN readers. I use GPT4 heavily for writing / editing code, but a major downside is that it doesn't know about new projects. I made the connection today that I could upload the zip file of a Github repo to FlowChai and then write prompts just like with ChatGPT with code questions. While the original intent for this platform is more around natural language, it's neat how this works so well. It's powered underneath by pgvector and OpenAI embeddings.
