In the early 2000’s I whipped up a tool to convert log statements into visual swim lanes like the Chrome profiler does. That thing was a godsend for reasoning about complex parallelism.
- EFreethought 1y agoWould you be willing to share this tool?
- switchbak 1y agoOh that's long lost to the trashbin of history. As I recall it was a combination of: - Log4j + MDC's so we could get a timestamp and thread ID easily - some python scripting I can't remember if it was PDF or SVG, but I do remember having to choose something that would allow for huge graphs and lots of scrolling! These days there's better options on github, but nice to see I was on a decent path.
