React Profiler Question

I noticed the React Profiler does not work for Perspective. I'm assuming this is because there is not "a development or profiling build of React v16.5+". Would it be possible to use the Profiler in future versions to troubleshoot performance issues?

I figure the answer is probably no since it would probably require a rebuild of Perspective in development mode but I thought I might ask anyway.

Hi.

That's right. We don't have any plans to include a profiling build. Besides, Chrome's devtools performance profiler is a much better tool for this. I very rarely use the React profiler to troubleshoot performance issues. Are you experiencing issues with a component that you've built? Is a particular view that your having trouble with? Analyzing performance profiles and pinpointing bottlenecks is a bit of an art, even more so in Perspective. This is made especially difficult when you don't have an understanding of inner workings, or the ability to change them. If you collect a performance profile, and send it to me directly, along with a description of what you're encountering, I may be able to help, as well as offer some tips on how to do this yourself.

I'm not having a particular issue, just want to know all the tools available to analyze performance. I'll give Chrome's performance profiler a spin. Thanks a bunch for the answer.

No problem. You're welcome.
