Profiling init configs built with straight.el

[matthew-piziak]

straight.el appears to be incompatible with ESUP, the Emacs Start-Up Profiler. What is the right way to profile dotemacsen that are fixtured with straight.el?

Works for me, with the following code in init.el and running M-x esup after initial installation from an otherwise empty ~/.emacs.d:

(defvar bootstrap-version)
(let ((bootstrap-file
       (expand-file-name "straight/repos/straight.el/bootstrap.el" user-emacs-directory))
      (bootstrap-version 5))
  (unless (file-exists-p bootstrap-file)
    (with-current-buffer
        (url-retrieve-synchronously
         "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raxod502/straight.el/develop/install.el"
         'silent 'inhibit-cookies)
      (goto-char (point-max))
      (eval-print-last-sexp)))
  (load bootstrap-file nil 'nomessage))

(straight-use-package 'esup)

This is running command-line Emacs 26.1 from Homebrew --with-cocoa --with-modules on OS X 10.11.6.

Could you provide some steps to reproduce the problem? FWIW, my own Emacs configuration uses ESUP.

Works for me in emacs 27.0.50 on GNU/Linux.

I had this problem before and I think (but I'm not sure it is the reason) it disappeared after upgrading emacs from 26.1 to 27.0.50.

I had the same issue here - I tried updating emacs as stated above but it didn't help. In the end I noticed a that some error messages referenced my ~/.recentf file so I disabled that module and deleted the file and esup started working. YMMV.
