Hey,
I have been working on some profiling of an application recently and whil=
st xhprof and xdebug are good to get an overall picture to further break =
into, I haven=E2=80=99t been able to find a tool for line by line profili=
ng in PHP for a particular file. I have done a bit of research and found =
rblineprof (https://github.com/tmm1/rblineprof) which is a line profiler =
for Ruby and I would like to achieve this in PHP.=C2=A0

The questions I have are:
- Is this even possible=3F
- Are there any projects out there or being worked on that achieve this=3F=

- If nothing exists, I am happy to look into this however I will need som=
e guidance on best practices, caveats with profiling PHP and ways of pars=
ing the file correctly.

Thanks=21
