Profile plugins

~/.zshrc

zi ice atinit'zmodload zsh/zprof' \  atload'zprof | head -n 20; zmodload -u zsh/zprof'zi light z-shell/F-Sy-H

Syntax	Description
atinit'…'	loads the zsh/zprof module, shipped with Zsh, before loading the plugin – this starts the profiling.
atload'…'	works after loading the plugin – shows profiling results zprof / head, unloads zsh/zprof - this stops the profiling.

While in effect, only a single plugin, in this case, z-shell/F-Sy-H, will be profiled.

The rest plugins will go on completely normally, as when plugins are loaded with light - reporting is disabled.

Less code is being run in the background, the automatic data gathering, during loading of a plugin, for the reports and the possibility to unload the plugin will be activated and the functions will not appear in the zprof report.

Example zprof report:

The first column is the time in milliseconds:

• It denotes the amount of time spent in a function in total
• For example, --zi-shadow-autoload consumed 10.71 ms of the execution time

The fourth column is also a time in milliseconds, but it denotes the amount of time spent on executing only of function's own code, it doesn't count the time spent in descendant functions that is called from the function:

• For example, --zi-shadow-autoload spent 8.71 ms on executing only its code

The table is sorted in the self-time column.

Profile .zshrc startup

Method 1

PROFILE_STARTUP=true to enable profiling.

Place the snippet below at the top of .zshrc.

~/.zshrc

PROFILE_STARTUP=falseif [[ "$PROFILE_STARTUP" == true ]]; then  zmodload zsh/zprof  PS4=$'%D{%M%S%.} %N:%i> '  exec 3>&2 2>$HOME/startlog.$$  setopt xtrace prompt_substfi

PS4 Prompt Expansion

Zsh Sourceforge docs: Prompt Expansion

Place at the bottom of .zshrc

~/.zshrc

if [[ "$PROFILE_STARTUP" == true ]]; then  unsetopt xtrace  exec 2>&3 3>&-; zprof > ~/zshprofile$(date +'%s')fi

The next time your .zshrc is sourced it will generate 2 files in the $HOME directory.

Method 2

Store multiple values to a variable:

~/.zshrc

# Set variabletypeset -Ag ZLOGS# Message to storezmsg() { ZLOGS+=( "\n[$1]: ${(M)$(( SECONDS * 1000 ))#*.?} ms" ); }# Start profilingtypeset -F4 SECONDS=0# <RUN SOME FUNCTIONS TO MEASURE>zmsg "Loaded functions"# <RUN SOMETHING ELSE>zmsg "Loaded something else"# <THE FINAL CODE BLOCK HERE>zmsg "Done"

Then use the $ZLOGS variable to retrieve:

print $ZLOGS

[Loaded functions]: 0.0 ms[Loaded something else]: 0.0 ms[Done]: 0.1 ms
