config-disassembler 0.11.6

name: Profile

# Profiles the crate under sf-decomposer's real workload (see
# examples/replay_workload.rs) instead of micro benches: the CPU-only
# `xml_micro` benches got 25-36% faster in #154 while sf-decomposer's
# end-to-end CPU time didn't move, so the hot path is somewhere they don't
# measure. This job answers "where does the time / memory actually go".
#
# Fixtures come from sf-decomposer's own deterministic generator
# (scripts/gen-perf-fixtures.ts), so the shapes match its perf suite.
#
# Outputs (job summary + artifact):
#   - unprofiled wall time and max RSS per phase (/usr/bin/time -v), to check
#     the replay is representative of sf-decomposer's perf comment
#   - perf: top functions by self time, by inclusive time, and a flamegraph SVG
#
# Heap profiling (heaptrack) was tried and removed: recording every allocation
# got the hosted runner shut down even on the `medium` fixture. Max RSS per
# phase is still reported by the unprofiled baseline.
