Superprofiler is a tool to help gather and visualise profiler data for web pages. It's called "Superprofiler" because it was a lot better than the one we had, and that one was simply called "profiler".
Superprofiler is released under the terms of the GPLv3 license.
See the file LICENSE for details.
This repository consists of two parts: libraries to gather profiler data on multiple server-side platforms (though, currently, only PHP), and the data visualisation code.
The visualisation code consists of a number of static HTML, JS, and CSS files that can be hosted anywhere. The latest stable release can be hotlinked at https://thijzert.github.io/superprofiler/ .
Data gathered is passed by encoding it as JSON, and passing it into the URL hash of the profiler like so: https://thijzert.github.io/superprofiler/#{...}
