Following on from #4133, here is a draft proposal for implementing a
frame_slice
method for the sorting analyzer, to see how tricky it is.API is:
which matches the
frame_slice
methods for sorting and recording objects.There's a "hard" mode (which just recomputes all extensions) and a "soft" mode (which attempts to estimate the extensions). Almost all the complexity occurs at the level of the extension. For each extension, we'd need to implement a
_frame_slice_extension_data
method.I've only implemented
_frame_slice_extension_data
forrandom_spikes
, and you can only return an in memory analyzer for the moment.Would like some feedback on the basic structure before doing anything more.
