FAQPage Schema
How do I get a thread dump from a running backend to diagnose a deadlock?▼

To perform CPU profiling on a backend, this skill offers CPU sampling capabilities to capture native stacks and generate data for flamegraphs, helping you identify and resolve CPU-intensive processes efficiently.

Can I generate Perfetto traces for backend analysis without extra privileges?▼

Yes, you can generate viztracer and Perfetto traces for in-depth backend analysis directly without needing additional privileges, allowing you to visualize performance issues within the Sculptor environment.

What is the best way to profile high CPU usage in a Python backend?▼

The best way to profile high CPU usage is using CPU sampling to create flamegraphs and native stacks, providing detailed Python-level diagnostics to pinpoint and fix CPU-intensive processes.

Do I need special permissions to run diagnostics on a Sculptor backend?▼

No, you do not need special permissions to run diagnostics on a Sculptor backend, as the skill is optimized to capture thread dumps and traces without requiring additional privileges.
