-The evolution of peak profiles in synchrotron X-ray diffraction (SXRD) data can tell us how the internal crystallographic structures of metals change during applied heating, high temperature straining and cooling cycles [@Daniel_2019; @Stark_2015; @Canelo_Yubero_2016; @Hu_2017], which is invaluable information used to improve industrial processing routes [@Salem_2008]. The experiment requires a beamline, at a synchrotron radiation facility such as Diamond Light Source [@Diamond_2020], to produce a high energy X-ray beam and illuminate a polycrystalline sample [@Daniel_2019]. The results are recorded in the form of time-resolved diffraction pattern rings, which are converted into a spectra of intensity peaks versus two-theta angle for a given direction [@Filik_2017; @Ashiotis_2015; @Hammersley_1996]. However, since many intensity profiles are collected during each experiment, with detectors recording at speeds greater than 250 Hz [@PILATUS_2020; @Loeliger_2012], fitting each of the individual lattice plane peaks can take a long time using current available software [@Basham_2015; @Merkel_2015; Hammersley_2016].
