asami VS pyroscope

Unlike some other commenters, I agree that graph models are usually a better fit for most data than relational models. There's been some interesting work in recent years developing this idea: in the Clojure world there's Datomic, XTDB, and a host of competitors, all of which build on work from Semantic Web/SPARQL/triplestores and logic programming. Some are even intended to be used as primary datastores: they support some amount of schema and constraints, have well-defined consistency and ACID guarantees, etc. This makes them unlike graph databases like Neo4J and others, which fill an architectural role more like Elasticsearch as a read-optimization tool. Here's an interesting talk making a case for triple-based databases.

Despite the documentation that exists, I've heard many people who have been confused about how to query Datomic, Datascript, Asami, or other graph databases. So I've made an attempt at explaining it https://github.com/threatgrid/asami/wiki/Introduction

The first Graph implementation for Asami was a simple in-memory data structure, described in my ClojureD talk. The code for this appears in asami.index. This file started much smaller (as referenced above), but has since expanded with the needs extended functionality, such as transactions, and transitive closure operations.

What do you mean? pyroscope.io was slow for you? or the blog?

Tries (or prefix trees).

We use them a lot at Pyroscope for compressing strings that have common prefixes. They are also used in databases (e.g indexes in Mongo) or file formats (e.g debug symbols in macOS/iOS Mach-O format are compressed using tries).

We have an article with some animations that go into details about tries in case anyone's interested [0].

You could use continuous profiling with Pyroscope which uses async-profiler under the hood, but with the added functionality that you can add relevant tags to your VMs (example).

Java Flight Recorder (JFR) is a format for collecting diagnostic and profiling data from Java applications. A while back someone created an issue for Pyroscope , an open source continuous profiler written in Go, to support ingesting profiles in JFR format, but there were no existing parsers that were also written in Go.

This cloud version is actually a slimmed-down version of Pyroscope which is open source and so you can run it locally.

At Pyroscope (open source continuous profiling) we use flamegraphs extensively to visualize and analyze profiling data. However, one of the worst parts about using flamegraphs for analysis is that they are kind of annoying to share.
