Analyze

analyze – trigger performance analysis of the appended query

analyze query;

where query is any EdgeQL query

analyze returns a table with performance metrics broken down by node.

You may prepend the analyze keyword in either of our REPLs (CLI or UI) or you may prepend in the UI’s query builder for a helpful visualization of your query’s performance.

After any analyze in a REPL, run the \expand command to see fine-grained performance analysis of the previously analyzed query.
