gvl_timing

Measures timings for the current thread's GVL state for CRuby.

This will add some (small) overhead to all GVL activity, so may be better to development/test or sampled use rather than continuous timing.

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add gvl_timing

>> timer = GVLTiming.measure { sleep 0.1 }
=> #<GVLTiming::Timer total=0.10s running=0.00s idle=0.10s stalled=0.00s>
>> timer.duration
=> 0.101082
>> timer.cpu_duration
=> 7.4667e-05
>> timer.idle_duration
=> 0.101048
>> timer.stalled_duration
=> 1.0e-06

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.
