Analysing Perfetto Android traces at every scale

Abstract

In this talk, I’ll explain how, in Google, we analyse Perfetto traces collected from Android devices at every scale. This ranges from a single device on a desk to tens of thousands collected from our internal testing population. I’ll take you through the tools we’ve built, the metrics we extract from traces and how we use these to improve the performance of Android.
