Profile JS code about njs HOT 2 OPEN

Hi @ram-vet,

There is console.time() and console.timeEnd() pair for njs CLI. Otherwise there no profiling tools specific to njs.

Please elaborate what you are trying to profile and what part of nginx/njs you are trying to measure.

from njs.

Hi @ram-vet
I wrote a little profiling tool for another NGINX user / customer.

It is not in an state where it would make sense to call it a tool but what you can basically do with it is measure execution times of NJS functions and write them to a file.

$ ~> node index.js

It will generate a log file and a little NodeJs application can actually create diagrams like this one.

All of this is very hacky :D and I feel very bad sharing the code as it will be (with a very high chance) the most ugliest piece of code you have ever seen in your live. Not kidding.

But let me know if this sounds useful to you. Happy to upload the stuff to a github repository.
