Thanks for the reply! The main reason I ask that is I primarily use Python and Julia, which have pretty decent tracing abilities but there are still a lot of rough edges when it comes to visualizing those traces. Particularly with Python, the default tracing packages such as cProfile are quite lacking in terms of support for visualizing and exploring the output of the profiling (most likely by design, but still frustrating nonetheless). It's necessary to bring in Snakeviz for visualizing, and it is quite good, but the HTML UI that it is run has very limited options when it comes to distinct ways of visualizing the data.
