proffer 0.2.22024-11-15

• Add seconds_timeout.

proffer 0.2.12024-10-30

• Use path.expand() on path to profiling samples.

proffer 0.2.02024-10-04

• Deprecate install_go(). Visit https://go.dev/dl/ to download the appropriate build of Go for your platform.
• Use the copy of pprof that comes with Go.
• Disable Go telemetry to comply with CRAN policies.

proffer 0.1.62023-02-01

• Fix path.expand() error when printing the port number (#30, @HenrikBengtsson).
• Use parallelly::freePort() to drive random_port() (#31, @HenrikBengtsson).
• Add the -no_browser flag to the pprof call to avoid redundant browsers.
• Update go link and go version (1.19.5).

proffer 0.1.52021-07-26

• Skip all tests on CRAN. When I submitted version 0.1.4, in the CRAN incoming pretests on 64-bit Windows R-devel (2021-07-25 r80663), the unit tests took 24 minutes to run. This length of time is certainly egregious, but I do no have access to the precise configuration of CRAN’s machines, and I cannot reproduce the issue on R hub, Win Builder, or GitHub Actions. In all these latter services, the total check time is 1-2 minutes.

proffer 0.1.4

• Choose the flame graph as the default view.

proffer 0.1.32021-06-28

• Reduce check time of examples.

proffer 0.1.2

• Remove superfluous operator %||%.
• Skip Go installation tests on CRAN.

proffer 0.1.12021-01-04

• Address a CRAN check error for R-devel on Windows: lengthen the time of a test to avoid empty protocol buffers.
• Build site with GitHub Actions and use flatly theme (#26, @krlmlr).
• Ping port until pprof is initialized (#28).
• Improve console messages of host and port.
• Forward error message if pprof process quits early.

proffer 0.1.02020-03-23

• pprof() passes ... to record_pprof() (#12, @krlmlr).
• In the DESCRIPTION, unquote function names and add parentheses afterwards. (CRAN comments for next submission.)
• Motivate profilers more in the README.
• Increase font size in logo.
• Search systems for pprof if the pprof_path env var is not set (#14, @krlmlr).
• Use PROFFER_PPROF_BIN env var instead of pprof_path (#11, @krlmlr). pprof_path is still back-compatibly supported.
• Introduce new environment variables PROFFER_GO_BIN and PROFFER_GRAPHVIZ_BIN to allow the user to set the paths to the respective binaries (#11, @krlmlr).
• Add a new pprof_sitrep() function to give a situation report of the pprof installation, its dependencies, and their environment variables (#17, @krlmlr).
• Add new function test_pprof().

proffer 0.0.22019-12-20

• Use processx instead of callr (#5, @gaborcsardi).
• Add Graphviz installation instructions.
• Add pprof and Graphviz as system requirements.
