What I usually do is profile with both the V8 profiler and callgrind. I suppose it could be fixed. dlopen() mappings show up in /proc/self/maps so technically V8 could know what address ranges belong to what modules. The problem is that the mappings are scanned at start-up, before any modules are loaded. Maybe a good topic for your first patch? :-) -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
