What problem does it solve?

Profiling native macOS and iOS apps to identify performance bottlenecks, hot paths, and inefficient code paths using Instruments and xctrace.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Native app profiling with Time Profiler, proper binary selection to ensure meaningful traces.
  • CLI-based workflow to record, attach, and export traces for analysis.
  • Use Case: Optimize startup time, frame rate, and CPU usage by isolating hot functions and validating results across builds.

Quick Start

List available xctrace templates and start a Time Profiler trace for your app with a 60-second limit, saving the resulting .trace for review in Instruments.
