Rustikon Talk - Rust Performance Profiling using hotpath-rs

Published: May 17, 2026

Reading time: 1 minute

Recently I gave a talk at the Rustikon conference about hotpath-rs - a Rust profiler focused on time, memory, CPU, and async performance debugging. I cover the project’s origin story and how it works under the hood. I also show a live instrumentation demo featuring the Zed editor.

It was my first conference talk in 8+ years, so I hope you enjoy it!

Every Rust pull request gets a performance review.

Catch regressions in memory, SQL queries, HTTP calls and concurrency bottlenecks before they reach production. Iterate on reproducible signals, not CI noise.
