<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@dinosaure" class="u-url mention">@<span>dinosaure</span></a></span> interesting, thanks for sharing. Do you have more details about what the final `perf kvm` command looked like? Also we&#39;re stack traces (flamegraphs) working? Using an ocaml compiler that has frame pointers enabled might help (although you&#39;d have to compile Solo5 with frame pointers too on the C side).</p>
