Flame Graphs 201

Visualizing profiling information can be a very powerful tool for performance diagnostics, specially if we zoom right into the problem. Flame graphs were developed for this purpose and we use them on a daily basis at Percona to successfully solve complex performance issues. In this presentation, attendees will learn advanced techniques for profiling with performance and visualizing those profiles with flame graphs, as well as other assorted tricks that the flame graph scripts allow us to do.
