Supporting Additional Load Formats

[ehidia]

Thanks for this great tool.

Are there plans to support additional load formats, specifically pstat?

The use case is to be able to load existing pstat profiles, merge with a new stat and visualize the merged profile using a tool like SnakeViz.

If this can't be supported, is there a way to visualize ystat?

Thanks.

Thank you!

Well, it is doable by adding a value to _SUPPORTED_LOAD_FORMATS = ['YSTAT'] and implementing a method in YFuncStats object with def _add_from_PSTAT(self, file):. For the implementation: we need to do the reverse of what we are doing in convert2pstats function.

However, for the time being, I don't have time to do this. If there is any help on this, I can help. Otherwise, it should sit a while.

_SUPPORTED_SAVE_FORMATS = ['YSTAT', 'CALLGRIND', 'PSTAT']
