Profiling with Heaptrack and Hotspot on Embedded Linux

Learn to leverage Heaptrack and Hotspot for comprehensive performance profiling on embedded Linux systems in this conference talk from NDC TechTown 2025. Discover how to use Heaptrack for heap memory profiling to identify memory leaks, excessive allocations, and memory usage patterns in your embedded applications. Master Hotspot and linux perf for both on-CPU and off-CPU profiling to analyze performance bottlenecks, CPU usage patterns, and system-level performance issues. Explore the most important features of these free and open-source profiling tools and understand how to integrate them effectively into common embedded Linux development workflows. Gain insights into recent developments and improvements in both projects that enhance their capabilities for embedded system debugging and optimization. Understand practical techniques for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting profiling data to optimize memory usage and performance in resource-constrained embedded environments.
