Have you tried bun --inspect? The profiler there doesn’t have an operating system requirement
thats just a debugger tho, right? not a profiler. it can't give me a flame chart or heap alloc timeline or line-level on-stack timings / call graphs. like the performance tab in chrome's devtools.
It has a profiler too. It’s Safari’s devtools exported as a standalone webapp.

https://profiler.firefox.com/ supports multiple profile formats, maybe producing something that can be viewed there would work...

hmm, okay will try. thanks!
What is the problem this feature would solve?
help Bun users optimize their code for JSC, which differs from V8.
for example, i discovered that JSC goes faster and uses much less memory when avoiding a lot of string concats. V8 uses a lot more memory both before and after avoiding string concat.
but i only discovered this through experimentation / educated guesswork which could have been avoided with a some kind of profiler.
What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?
are there any plans to provide a way to record and view profiles in Bun?
my use case is pretty simple. i have a self-contained lib with no dependencies and does not use any bun-specific or node-specific features. i'm on linux and cannot easily spin up safari to profile this thing in webkit/jsc.
What alternatives have you considered?
buying a mac :D
