Typegrind - Type Preserving Heap Profiler for C++

Explore a type-preserving heap profiler for C++ based on the LLVM/Clang tooling library. Discover how this advanced memory profiler provides detailed type information for allocated objects, including template constructs, in addition to standard heap profiling features. Learn how to extract data on individual memory operations and generate aggregated overviews, enabling programmers to identify critical classes responsible for memory usage and perform evidence-based optimizations. Gain insights into the tool's ability to reveal memory handling details, such as allocation locations, timing, and object types, even for standard containers using type-erasing allocators. Understand how this profiler overcomes C++'s lack of reflection and complex syntax challenges to provide valuable information for improving program performance and memory management.
