Description-en: Frame stack sampler for CPython
Austin is a Python frame stack sampler for CPython written in pure C. It
samples the stack traces of a Python application so that they can be visualised
and analysed. As such, it serves the basis for building powerful profilers for
Python.
.
The most interesting use of Austin is probably in conjunction with FlameGraph
to profile Python applications while they are running, without the need of
instrumentation. This means that Austin can be used on production code with
little or even no impact on performance.
