# 🔥 flamebearer

A blazing fast [flame graph](http://www.brendangregg.com/flamegraphs.html) tool for Node and V8.

Used to visualize and explore performance profiling results.

Designed to produce fast, lightweight flame graphs that remain responsive even on really big input.

## [Example graph](https://mapbox.github.io/flamebearer/examples/rollup.html)

## Usage

Use the [online version](https://mapbox.github.io/flamebearer/), or the command line tool:

```bash

# install flamebearer (Node v8.5+ required)

$ npm install -g flamebearer

# profile your app

$ node --prof app.js

# generate flamegraph.html from a V8 log and open it in the browser

$ node --prof-process --preprocess -j isolate*.log | flamebearer

```
