  • Wachy – A UI for eBPF-based performance debugging2022 · rubrikinc.github.io · ▲116

    eBPF is an amazing technology that allows safely running user-supplied functions at pretty much arbitrary probe points in a kernel/user space context. Much has been written about how amazing this feature is for kernel observability. But as someone who writes user space code, what I find even more amazing is the support for tracing arbitrary user space programs, with no code changes and low overhead. However, doing in-depth analysis can get complicated and time-consuming. My goal with wachy was to make this debugging significantly easier/faster to use, by displaying traces in a TUI…

    Hi HN! I made many small web games in the past with Unity or Phaser. But this time I wanted to make something completely on my own.
