1. Flamegraphs with samply

For finding performance bottlenecks in query execution (full reference: docs/profiling.md):

cargo install samply                              # one-time
# [profile.release] has `debug` commented out in Cargo.toml, so a plain
# --release build has no line info. Add debuginfo for readable flamegraphs:
RUSTFLAGS="-C debuginfo=2" cargo build --release

# record redis-server with the module loaded, run your query/workload
# against it, then stop the server
samply record redis-server --loadmodule ./target/release/libfalkordb.dylib

On stop, samply opens the Firefox Profiler UI in your browser. Use libfalkordb.so on Linux.

2. Benchmark suite

CI runs the A/B FalkorDB-vs-FalkorDB benchmark pipeline (.github/workflows/_benchmark.yml, driven by the FalkorDB/benchmark tool) and publishes the trend to https://falkordb.github.io/falkordb-rs-next-gen/benchmark/ — compare against that history when checking for a regression.

Notes

• For line/region/function code-coverage reports (LLVM , , devcontainer/docker flow) see the skill.
