Event loop diagnostics

A system monitors an event loop executing on a host and determines causes for delays in tasks of the event loop. The system may include circuitry that receives, from an agent of the host, event loop data defining suspend and resume times of the tasks of the event loop executing on the host. The circuitry determines, based on the event loop data, event loop analysis data defining execution times for each of the tasks. The circuitry determines, based on the event loop analysis data, a cause of a delay in a task of the event loop as resulting from at least one of (i) a task delay in execution of the task or (ii) a loop delay in execution of another task of the event loop.
