I've made a number of changes to sb-sprof
lately, as a consequence of
which the previous releases of sb-sprof-ui
and slime-sprof
will
no longer work with the next release of SBCL. An updated version of
slime-sprof
is
available.
sb-sprof-ui
is not going to be updated. On the plus side, sb-sprof
should now be more reliable, have a lot less profiling overhead for
long profiling runs, and directly supports the allocation profiling
patch that I discussed on this blog earlier. It also has more documentation
which I would link to, except that the SBCL manual auto-builder
seems to be running a few days late.

I don't think there are any fundamental reasons why something like this couldn't make it into Slime proper. It's just a matter of somebody doing the work. (Cleaning up my messy elisp code is, thinking about the UI, documenting it, etc).
It's not terribly high on my priority list right now. I did have minion lined up for doing this a while ago, but nothing came of it :-)
What would it take to get something like slime-sprof into slime proper?
