Greg Ignat worked on the google/perfetto repository, delivering six features and a bug fix over two months focused on performance analysis and trace tooling. He enhanced CPU utilization metrics with suspend-aware reporting and UPID/UTID-based aggregation, improving attribution accuracy. Greg also expanded ANR analytics, migrated storage for faster reporting, and integrated new data sources into the Perfetto SDK. He introduced an UNHEX function in the Trace Processor using C++ and SQL, and fixed Java Heap Graph deobfuscation in the UI. His work demonstrated depth across Android development, system monitoring, and frontend engineering, resulting in more reliable and flexible performance insights.

October 2025: Delivered two customer-facing enhancements in Perfetto that improve track management and analysis tooling. Key features delivered include: Perfetto Java SDK: User-provided IDs for named tracks (replacing internal ID generator; updated constructors/builders to accept user IDs); Stdlib: Thread creation spam analysis enhancements with function renames, corrected parameter names and duration filtering, standardized thread name partitioning, output column changed from pid to upid, and a new per-process analysis function with updated tests. No major bugs fixed this month. Impact: increased flexibility for instrumentation, more accurate per-process analysis, clearer APIs and improved testing coverage. Commit references: 3f60505581e6a0cb81614b15eb049bea680996d2; 8ccd2e2b296b06f2c7b29ddf3bdeaa4ed84012e7.
