CrystalPerf learns from source code to infer per-operator resource breakdowns (CPU, network, disk) and combines that with non‑intrusive sampling profiler traces to estimate resource time and predict job runtime under configuration changes. It trains classifiers on ~5,000 labeled functions, is implemented as a CLI tool CrystalPerf, evaluates on Spark, Flink and TensorFlow, and predicts performance within about 14% deviation. It requires no instrumentation and flags concrete bottlenecks (an IO bottleneck fixed by enabling NCCL in a case study).
