A flame graph visualizes hierarchical call stack data from performance profiling, where each horizontal bar represents a function in the call stack and its width is proportional to the time (or samples) spent in that function. Stacks are layered bottom-to-top showing caller-to-callee relationships. Invented by Brendan Gregg, flame graphs are the standard visualization for identifying CPU bottlenecks and hot code paths across all major programming languages and profiling tools.
