In the big data era, where we might have petabytes of data, maintaining the performance of applications is crucial. The application performance might go down because of data-loading operations or calculations. To detect such operations, we have a package called profvis. This tells us how much time a line of code takes to execute. Install the package as follows:
install.packages("profvis")
RStudio has provided support for the profvis package. Let's take a look at how to use it:
library(profvis)
profvis({
plot(iris$Sepal.Length,iris$Sepal.Width)
plot(cars$speed,cars$dist)
})
profvis encloses the code to be analyzed. In the following screenshot, we can see the output. For each line of code, we can see the memory usage with ...
