A Lua profiler plugin for Unity that instruments xLua-based Lua code to report per-function CPU time and GC memory usage. It works in the Unity editor (local mode) and on Android devices (remote mode) via a native hook into the Lua library.

Use cases

• profile lua script performance in unity games
• find lua functions causing high gc memory
• measure per-function lua execution time per frame
• debug lua memory leaks in xlua projects
• profile lua on android device from unity editor
• compare lua gc vs mono gc allocations

When to choose

• you use xLua or another Lua VM inside a Unity project and need function-level profiling
• you need to profile Lua performance on Android devices remotely
• you want a free, editor-integrated alternative to commercial Unity profilers for Lua

When to avoid

• your project does not use Lua scripting
• you need iOS profiling support (still in progress)
• you need a general-purpose C# or native code profiler
