[llvm-dev] llvm-xray: Converter to trace_event yields huge files for templated programs

[Ospina De Los Rios, Santiago via llvm-dev]

Hi,


the `llvm-xray convert --output-format=trace_event --symbolize ...` command tries to symbolize the name of each event. This makes results to be huge when function signatures of C++ template functions are big. As far as I understand, this is not necessary since the `stackTrace` objects are also symbolized, and each event is linked to its respective `stackTrace` by the stack function id [1]. So my question is, why is the event symbolized at all?  am I missing something?
