threadscope: A graphical tool for profiling parallel Haskell programs.

[ bsd3, development, profiling, program, trace ] [ Propose Tags ]

ThreadScope is a graphical viewer for thread profile information generated by the Glasgow Haskell compiler (GHC).

The Threadscope program allows us to debug the parallel performance of Haskell programs. Using Threadscope we can check to see that work is well balanced across the available processors and spot performance issues relating to garbage collection or poor load balancing.

ThreadScope

Hackage Hackage-Deps Build Status Build status

Using pre-built binaries

Currently pre-built binaries for the following platforms are provided:

  • Ubuntu Trusty (64-bit)
  • OS X
  • Windows (x64)

GTK+2 needs to be installed for those binaries to work. On OS X, gtk-mac-integration also needs to be installed.

Building from source

Linux

GTK+2 is required to be installed. On Ubuntu-like systems:

sudo apt install libgtk2.0-dev

Then you can build threadscope using cabal:

cabal new-build

Or using stack:

stack setup
stack install

OS X

GTK+ and gtk-mac-integration are required.

brew install gtk+ gtk-mac-integration

Then you can build threadscope using cabal:

cabal new-build --constraint="gtk +have-quartz-gtk"

Or using stack:

stack setup
stack install --flag gtk:have-quartz-gtk

Windows

stack is the recommended tool to build threadscope on Windows.

CAVEAT: Currently gtk2 needs to be installed twice: one for stack's MSYS2 environment and another for local MSYS2 environment.

In command prompt:

stack setup
stack exec -- pacman --needed -Sy bash pacman pacman-mirrors msys2-runtime msys2-runtime-devel
stack exec -- pacman -Syu
stack exec -- pacman -Syuu
stack exec -- pacman -S base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-pkg-config mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain mingw-w64-x86_64-gtk2
stack install

Then in MSYS2 MINGW64 shell:

pacman -S $MINGW_PACKAGE_PREFIX-gtk2
echo 'export PATH=$APPDATA/local/bin:$PATH' >> .profile
source .profile
