[pypy-dev] Dontbug: A reversible debugger for PHP (similar in concept to RevDB for Python/PyPy)

[Maciej Fijalkowski]

Hi Sidharth

I see dontbug is based on rr - I would like to know how well rr works
for you. We've tried using rr for pypy and it didn't work as
advertised. On the other hand it seems the project is moving fast, so
maybe it works these days
