Hi Armin, As far as I know (my team members tried this), vmprof does not allow us to attach to a running process? We will evaluate https://github.com/vmprof/vmprof-python if you think it's doable.
Regarding to license, you could get free version as an active Open Source contributor: https://software.intel.com/en-us/qualify-for-free-software, click on "Open Source Contributor". Please let me know how it works for you. Also, would you need a Windows version of VTUNE as well? As far as feature is concerned, hot spot analysis on JITed code, mapping to source codes, along with getting other info, such as getting microarchitecture statistics, all on the same time, are also important to us.

However, for hot spot > analysis, we’d like to trace back to the Python application source code. Mapping raw addresses in JIT-generated assembly all the way back to Python is a bit difficult, but that's what vmprof tries to do. I can imagine a solution based on vmprof. For now, try to run pypy in the vtune branch together with vmprof: https://github.com/vmprof/vmprof-python . I think the vmprof log file contains some information that does the mapping we're looking for. For now we're not actively developing the vtune branch any more, but maybe we should. I should add that my copy of vtune-amplifier-xe started refusing to work, with "Error - no valid license - license expired" and no hint about if and how to renew that license, so that put me off. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
