As Go developers, we often reach for built-in profiling tools when optimizing our applications. But what if we could create a profiler that speaks our application's language? In this guide, we'll construct a custom profiler for a Go web service, focusing on request handling, database operations, and memory usage.
While Go's standard profiler is powerful, it might not capture everything specific to your web service:
Let's build a profiler that addresses these exact needs.
First, let's set up a basic web service to profile:
package main import ( "database/sql" "encoding/json" "log" "net/http" _ "github.com/lib/pq" ) type User struct { ID int `json:"id"` Name string `json:"name"` } var db *sql.DB func main() { // Initialize database connection var err error db, err = sql.Open("postgres", "postgres://username:password@localhost/database?sslmode=disable") if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } defer db.Close() // Set up routes http.HandleFunc("/user", handleUser) // Start the server log.Println("Server starting on :8080") log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)) } func handleUser(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { // Handle GET and POST requests for users // Implementation omitted for brevity }
Now, let's build our custom profiler to gain deep insights into this service.
We'll start by measuring how long each request takes:
import ( "time" "sync" ) var ( requestDurations = make(map[string]time.Duration) requestMutex sync.RWMutex ) func trackRequestDuration(handler http.HandlerFunc) http.HandlerFunc { return func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { start := time.Now() handler(w, r) duration := time.Since(start) requestMutex.Lock() requestDurations[r.URL.Path] += duration requestMutex.Unlock() } } // In main(), wrap your handlers: http.HandleFunc("/user", trackRequestDuration(handleUser))
Next, let's keep tabs on our database performance:
type QueryStats struct { Count int Duration time.Duration } var ( queryStats = make(map[string]QueryStats) queryMutex sync.RWMutex ) func trackQuery(query string, duration time.Duration) { queryMutex.Lock() defer queryMutex.Unlock() stats := queryStats[query] stats.Count++ stats.Duration += duration queryStats[query] = stats } // Use this function to wrap your database queries: func profiledQuery(query string, args ...interface{}) (*sql.Rows, error) { start := time.Now() rows, err := db.Query(query, args...) duration := time.Since(start) trackQuery(query, duration) return rows, err }
Let's add memory usage tracking to complete our profiler:
import "runtime" func getMemStats() runtime.MemStats { var m runtime.MemStats runtime.ReadMemStats(&m) return m } func logMemStats() { stats := getMemStats() log.Printf("Alloc = %v MiB", bToMb(stats.Alloc)) log.Printf("TotalAlloc = %v MiB", bToMb(stats.TotalAlloc)) log.Printf("Sys = %v MiB", bToMb(stats.Sys)) log.Printf("NumGC = %v", stats.NumGC) } func bToMb(b uint64) uint64 { return b / 1024 / 1024 } // Call this periodically in a goroutine: go func() { ticker := time.NewTicker(1 * time.Minute) for range ticker.C { logMemStats() } }()
Finally, let's create an endpoint to expose our profiling data:
func handleProfile(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { requestMutex.RLock() queryMutex.RLock() defer requestMutex.RUnlock() defer queryMutex.RUnlock() profile := map[string]interface{}{ "requestDurations": requestDurations, "queryStats": queryStats, "memStats": getMemStats(), } w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json") json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(profile) } // In main(): http.HandleFunc("/debug/profile", handleProfile)
Now that we have our profiler components, let's integrate them into our main application:
func main() { // ... (previous database initialization code) ... // Set up profiled routes http.HandleFunc("/user", trackRequestDuration(handleUser)) http.HandleFunc("/debug/profile", handleProfile) // Start memory stats logging go func() { ticker := time.NewTicker(1 * time.Minute) for range ticker.C { logMemStats() } }() // Start the server log.Println("Server starting on :8080") log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)) }
To gain insights into your web service:
With this custom profiler, you can now:
We've built a custom profiler tailored to our Go web service needs, allowing us to gather specific insights that generic profilers might miss. This targeted approach empowers you to make informed optimizations and deliver a faster, more efficient application.
Remember, while custom profiling is powerful, it does add some overhead. Use it judiciously, especially in production environments. Start with development and staging environments, and gradually roll out to production as you refine your profiling strategy.
By understanding the unique performance characteristics of your Go web service, you're now equipped to take your optimization game to the next level. Happy profiling!
