Eclipse Trace Compass – Past, Present and Future
summary
Trace Compass is an open‑source Eclipse project that reads CTF traces and other formats, runs Java plug‑in analyses and produces Gantt charts, flame graphs and latency statistics; recent additions include a Jaeger/ OpenTracing parser and Jaeger tracing views plus critical path analysis that isolates spans contributing to total latency. A lightweight trace server prototype exposes a REST API and serializable data providers so modern web UIs can fetch prefiltered data for scalable, CI‑driven visualization.
