Instance Profiling Page

The instance profiling page summarizes the internal performance data of each TiDB instance, TiKV instance, and PD instance. With this page, you can view the instance profiling without restarting these instances.

The summarized performance data can be displayed as a flame graph or a directed acyclic graph, which visually shows the internal operations and proportions performed on the instances during the performance summary period. With this graph, you can quickly learn the main CPU resource consumption of these instances.

Access the page

You can access the instance profiling page using one of the following methods:

Start Profiling

In the instance profiling page, choose at least one target instance and click Start Profiling to start the instance profiling.

Start instance profiling

You can modify the profiling duration before starting the profiling. This duration is determined by the time needed for the profiling, which is 30 seconds by default. The 30-second duration takes approximately 30 seconds to complete.

View profiling status

After a profiling is started, you can view the profiling status and progress in real time.
