Starting Nusku: a continuous profiler for Linux, built in Zig, no shortcuts

·13 views

I've always wanted to see the complete performance picture before pushing any code or building something. Not after it's slow in production, not after a user complains about it, before. Click a button, run a command, trigger a request, and actually see what that cost instead of guessing. That itch has been sitting with me for years.
