memprof (c) Joe Damato @joedamato http://timetobleed.com What is memprof? ================ Memprof is a memory profiler for Ruby that requires no patches to the Ruby VM. It can help you find Ruby level memory leaks in your application. Required to install =================== If you are using the Linux version, you need to install libelf: apt-get install libelfg0-dev The experimental OSX version needs no additional libraries. How to use ========== require 'memprof' Memprof.start # ruby code Memprof.stats # more ruby code Memprof.stats Memprof.stop The above code will output 2 summaries, allowing you to compare which objects were destroyed and which are still around. Memprof.stats also takes an (optional) file name to write the output to a file. Supported systems ================= This only works on unstripped binaries. Currently supporting: Linux: x86_64 builds of Ruby Enterprise Edition 1.8.6/1.8.7 x86_64 builds of MRI Ruby if built with --disable-shared Experimental support: Snow Leopard: x86_64 builds of MRI (both enable-shared and disable-shared) OSX system Ruby, distributed with Snow Leopard Coming soon: Official support for Snow Leopard. Linux: Tracking object allocationns in C extensions. x86_64 builds of MRI Ruby with --enable-shared i386/i686 support for all the above. CREDITS ======= Jake Douglas for the Mach O/snow leopard support. Aman Gupta for various bug fixes and other cleanup.
