Rendering a stack trace visualization display

A system for rendering a stack trace visualization display associated with execution of an application, the system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that stores instructions configurable to be executed by the at least one processor to:
• receive a first stack trace associated with execution of the application during a time period from a central processing unit (CPU) profiler;
• and
• render a first stack trace visualization display comprising a plurality of stack frames stacked in accordance with an order of ancestry based on the first stack trace, wherein rendering at least one of the plurality of stack frames comprises:
• rendering at a first location of the first stack trace visualization display a stack frame rectangle associated with the at least one of the plurality of stack frames in accordance with the order of ancestry;
• and
• rendering at a second location of the first stack trace visualization display, stack frame specific text associated with the at least one of the plurality of stack frames, the second location overlaying the first location, where the rendering of the stack frame rectangle is independent of the rendering of the stack frame specific text.

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that stores instructions executable by at least one processor, the instructions configurable to cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a first stack trace associated with execution of the application during a time period from a central processing unit (CPU) profiler;
• and
• rendering a first stack trace visualization display comprising a plurality of stack frames stacked in accordance with an order of ancestry based on the first stack trace, wherein rendering at least one of the plurality of stack frames comprises:
• rendering at a first location of the first stack trace visualization display a stack frame rectangle associated with the at least one of the plurality of stack frames in accordance with the order of ancestry;
• and
• rendering at a second location of the first stack trace visualization display, stack frame specific text associated with the at least one of the plurality of stack frames, the second location overlaying the first location, where the rendering of the stack frame rectangle is independent of the rendering of the stack frame specific text.
