speedscope is a fast, interactive web-based viewer for performance profiles that imports data from many profilers across languages like JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Go, and Java. It lets developers interactively explore flamegraphs and other views to find what is slow or memory-hungry in their applications.

Use cases

  • visualize a flamegraph from a Chrome or Node.js CPU profile
  • analyze py-spy or pyinstrument profiles from a Python app
  • view pprof profiles from a Go service
  • explore async-profiler or Java Flight Recorder output
  • find performance bottlenecks in a Ruby app with rbspy profiles
  • inspect perf or Instruments.app profiles for native code

When to choose

  • you need a free, interactive flamegraph viewer that runs in the browser
  • you have profiling data from multiple languages and want one tool to view them all
  • you want to share profile analysis without installing heavy desktop tooling

When to avoid

  • you need continuous production profiling or alerting rather than offline profile viewing
  • you need a profiler itself - speedscope only visualizes existing profile data
  • you require deep IDE-integrated profiling workflows
