MacOS X has definitely not "always" had DTrace - it shipped in 10.5 along with the "Instruments" front-end. It's true it is becoming distinctly less useful on OSX though - a shame as I use it extensively as an (application) development tool. This might make me take a slightly more serious look at Windows for laptops in future.
- ianlevesque 8y ago10.5 was 2007. Always is probably true for some HN readers already.
- kasabali 8y agoIt is true for everyone. DTrace source was released in Jan 2005, and Mac OS X 10.4 was released in Apr of same year. So they must have ported it immediately and ship it in the next release (10.5)
