Xdebug tips, newest first
3 tips
- Xdebug
Record every call of one request and find the slow one
Record an Xdebug function trace, send the file to Buggregator, and see the slowest calls, the call tree and a search over every call.
- Xdebug
Start Xdebug only for the request you want
Set xdebug.start_with_request=trigger. Xdebug starts only when a request carries XDEBUG_TRIGGER, and that session goes to Buggregator.
