What problem does it solve?

Debug crashes, memory corruption, leaks, and performance hotspots using Valgrind and Callgrind on Linux, with guidance for interpreting outputs and GUI tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Memory Debugging: Detect leaks, invalid reads/writes, and uninitialized memory.
  • Track Origins: Identify where an uninitialized value originates.
  • Profiling: Use Callgrind to analyze function-level performance and compare before/after runs.
  • GUI Analysis: Visualize results with kcachegrind/qcachegrind for easier insight.

Quick Start

Run a Linux binary under Valgrind, e.g., valgrind --leak-check=full --error-exitcode=1 ./target/debug/mybin, then inspect the output for leaks and traces.
