Dtrace for Perlby GoCool (Scribe) |

GoCool has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
While reading this article on slashdot this morning about porting Solaris Dtrace to Freebsd, I realized that there has been a lot of porting of Dtrace being done of late. For example, Dtrace for Ruby, potential of Dtrace for speeding PHP scripts etc. I haven't used Dtrace myself but from the article I gather that Dtrace does a superior job at exposing the guts of the trace with absolutely no secrets about the internals. While I'm certainly aware the there are quite a few modules on CPAN for debugging and viewing stack traces of Perl code, is there some work being done or proposals for porting Dtrace to Perl, or is that even required to begin with? Thanks in advance.
