Description
It seems that the Expert currently has limited tracing support, which makes it challenging to perform detailed profiling and performance analysis.
This is related to #235.
Having additional tracing instrumentation would make it easier to understand where time is being spent, for example:
- processing individual LSP requests (such as completion or hover)
- indexing the project
- building the engine
One possible approach could be to make this tracing optional, to avoid overhead in normal usage.
It could be enabled via:
- ENV var like `EXPERT_PROFILE`
- config checkbox in editor like `Enable profiling`
- cli argument like `--profile`
This would produce `.expert/profile_.json` file.
For reference, below is an example screenshot of a profile file generated by [cairols](https://github.com/software-mansion/cairols) and viewed in [perfetto](https://ui.perfetto.dev/), which illustrates the kind of insights that tracing can provide.
Open question is what would be best for row descriptions?
