How can I profile a controller action? One of my views is taking quite some time to render and I'd like to break it down. I see script/performance/profiler, but that seems to only have access to the global scope. ...
I have a program written in c++ that I want to profile, and I want to avoid restarting it when I start and stop profiling. Ideally I would be profiling both CPU usage and memory allocation. Is there any tool that will allow me to do this? I'm running on Linux. ...
I have set up Eclipse PDT on Galileo. I'm able to run and debug PHP sites that are set up on XAMPP. The thing is, I want to profile one of the sites, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to set this up. There is a profiling menu when I right-click the PHP project, but no indication of how to proceed from there. BTW I'm using Xdeb...
Hi all, as the title says I'd like to somehow get the cache behavior of my code. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit edition, compiling on Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition, compiling C++ code. I understand that there's Valgrind under Linux, but are there any free alternatives I could use, or methods otherwise? Thanks! ...
I know this is a big one. In fact, it may be used for some SO community wiki. Anyways, I am running a website that DOES NOT use explicit authentication of users. It's public as in open to everybody. However, due to the nature of the service, some users need to be locked out due to misbehavior. I am currently blocking IP addresses, but ...
Hi all, I am trying to profile CPU usage using TPTP. Application to profile run on Linux RH AS5. I installed and configured Agent Controller like described here I ran the java application using the command java '-agentlib:JPIBootLoader=JPIAgent:server=standalone,file=log.trcxml;CGProf' MyApp The monitoring station is All-In-one TPTP...
I'm trying to figure out where a whole pile of extra queries are being generated by my rails app. I need some ideas on how to tackle it. Or, if someone can give me some hints, I'd be grateful. I get these: SQL (1.0ms) SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type = 'table' AND NOT name = 'sqlite_sequence' SQL (0.8ms) SELECT na...
I have not been capable of finding this anywhere online. I was looking to find out using a profiler how to better optimize my code, and when sorting by which functions use up the most time cumulatively, things like str(), print, and other similar widely used functions eat up much of the profile. What is the best way to profile a python ...
I want to add some behavior to a certain class at runtime. I know how to subclass at runtime using Reflection.Emit but thats not enough, Depending on some external configuration I need to inject opcodes in a method on a type T so all classes that inherit from it automatically gain this behavior.(I cant use the .NET Profiling API) Can s...
Possibly some methods to turn on and turn off profiling from code? Or can you select a specific function to profile ? ...
I do not understand the documentation for gprof regarding how to compile your program for profiling with gprof. In g++, is it required to compile with the -g option (debugging information) in a addition to the -pg option or not. In each case I get different results, and I would like to see where the bottlenecks in my application are in r...
Hey, I'm totally behind this topic. Yesterday I was doing profiling using Python profiler module for some script I'm working on, and the unit for time spent was a 'CPU second'. Can anyone remind me with the definition of it? For example for some profiling I got: 200.750 CPU seconds. What does that supposed to mean? At other case and fo...
I am compiling an IPhone application via command line (so no XCode options involved) and I am unable to get my symbol names to show when profiling with Instruments. I have tried several flags such as -gdawrf-2 and -g without any success. I have also tried using dsymutils to generate a .dSYM file but i have no clue how I'm supposed to use...
I have an application, which I have re-factored so that I believe it is now faster. One can't possibly feel the difference, but in theory, the application should run faster. Normally I would not care, but as this is part of my project for my master's degree, I would like to support my claim that the re-factoring did not only lead to impr...
I am attempting to profile a long running python script. The script does some spatial analysis on raster GIS data set using the gdal module. The script currently uses three files, the main script which loops over the raster pixels called find_pixel_pairs.py, a simple cache in lrucache.py and some misc classes in utils.py. I have profi...
Hello. I am a beginner, and wrote the following program for fun, to search through a directory and replace every occurrence of one word with another. I call the crt_ls_file() function once, and once only, but gprof tells me it is being called 102 times. I am wondering if anyone knows why this is. I have tried compiling the program will a...
I'm profiling a program using sampling profiling in YourKit and JProfiler, and also "manually" (I launch it and press Ctrl-Break several times to get thread dumps). All three methods give me extremely strange results: some tens of percents of time spent in a 3-line method that does not even do any allocation or synchronization and doesn...
I'm new to app development and CI as a whole, so I've got an oodle of questions. What is profiling? How is it used? How does it work? What is considered a "long" time? More importantly, How do I use it to improve performance? The reason I'm asking is b/c my app is really sluggish right now. ...
Performance counters for Linux are a new kernel-based subsystem that provide a framework for all things performance analysis. It covers hardware level (CPU/PMU, Performance Monitoring Unit) features and software features (software counters, tracepoints) as well. Since 2.6.33, the kernel provide 'perf_event_create_kernel_counter' kernel ...
My understanding is that by default gprof takes into account CPU time. Is there a way to get it to profile based on wall-clock time? My program does a lot of disk i/o, so the CPU time it uses only represents a fraction of the actual execution time. I need to know which portions of the disk i/o take up the most time. ...
