How can I integrate pyperf[ormance] w/ a heavy-duty memory profiler?
by Christos P. Lamprakos Feb. 8, 2022

Hi there, I apologize in advance for any potential dumbness in my question. bytehound <https://github.com/koute/bytehound> is a cool profiler that works like this: |$ export MEMORY_PROFILER_LOG=warn $ LD_PRELOAD=./libbytehound.so ./your_application | || What I'm after is to plug it in every run of the benchmarks in pyperformance <https://github.com/python/pyperformance>. It seems like the steps to achieve this are: 1. Fork pyperf <https://github.com/psf/pyperf>, since it is the actual benchmark-running engine. 2. Modify pyperf so as to make command prepending possible somehow. 3. Install this modified pyperf. 4. Install pyperformance on top of the modified pyperf. I do not have the knowledge or experience to tackle step 2 on my own. Could I have your opinion on the whole endeavor, and maybe some advice? Thanks a lot, Christos Lamprakos || ||||
