phpstorm 8.0.3 xdebug 2.3+

Is there profiling support for xdebug 2.3+ with phpstorm 8.0.3?

[xdebug]
zend_extension = "/usr/lib/php5/20121212/xdebug.so"
xdebug.remote_autostart=1
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_port="9000"
xdebug.profiler_enable=1
xdebug.profiler_output_dir="</home/karborator/tmp/profiling>"
xdebug.profiler_enable_trigger=1

Nothing happens when I trying to start profiling with Chrome extension xdebug helper.

Solution

  • if configured correctly, you should get a cachegrind file in xdebug.profiler_output_dir after the request has been profiled.

    That's pretty much the whole profiling integration that PHPStorm currently supports. You cannot visualize the data stored in this file using PhpStorm.

    On a Linux system you could use KCacheGrind to view&analyze the outputed profiling report.
