Porting rr to x86-64

  • Wow, rr's a pretty slick tool. Definitely filed away for future use. Anyone with use experience care to chime in about it?

    rr also reminds me of when, ages ago, I first ran into the ocaml debugger's ability to step forward and step backward. To borrow the modern cliché: mind blown.

  • This seems like an incredibly useful tool, I can't believe I haven't heard about it before.

    Nevertheless, does anyone know if there's something like this for programs compiled to the JVM? I've never used gdb to debug JVM code, but I expect that it will not work well.

  • Looks very promising. Did a quick set up but unfortunately some counters couldn't be initialized on my VM.
