This is very cool. I am a big believer in tools analyzing a sequence of heap snapshots to automate the time-consuming parts of manual debugging. I am working on doing something similar in C++, where there is an additional obstacle of recreating the objects from a memory snapshot without runtime support. | ||

Thanks! JavaScript snapshots make this feasible because the runtime exposes a complete object graph — types, edges, arrays, strings, everything. Doing similar work in C++ is on a totally different level: raw memory, no type info, pointer chasing, layout inference... Very curious to hear how you’re approaching it. | ||
