I've seen several open source projects attempting to parse and extract data from Instruments .traces files. In no particular order:

  1. Traced
  2. TraceUtility
  3. InstrumentsParser

None of the projects I've looked at are ideal because Apple doesn't maintain the .traces format with the intent of anything other than Instruments reading it. This answer walks through some of the file format structure details.

Ideally in the future Apple will offer an option to export to some standard formats. Until then you'll have to use or extend these parsing libraries to dig through the data blob.

  • @bablu-joshi add a comment if you find something better! I've worked on this same problem just a bit, but had to move on to other projects. – suite22 Jul 20 '17 at 16:26
