 Other improvements in Mix include better compiler diagnostics for editor integration, support for the `--slowest N` flag in `mix test` that shows the slowest tests in your suite, and a new `mix profile.eprof` task that provides time based profiling, complementing the existing `mix profile.cprof` (count based) and `mix profile.fprof` (flame based).
