If you don't use DTrace to debug php, you're missing a lot: http://php.net/manual/en/features.dtrace.dtrace.php. Same for python and ruby and node.js. All these have DTrace support.

DTrace is not hard, it's essential; and it's significantly easier, than say, awk, which is another crucial tool.



Under OSX it seems that DTrace support is incomplete thanks to OSX' dtrace implementation [1]. [1] https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/3617

I think only Solaris has full support?
