Perf Views | Updating This Document |
The perf plug-in allows you to store profiling sessions to keep track of a project's performance history. Furthermore, sessions allow the plug-in to provide a number of comparison features to investigate differences in performance.
Currently profile and statistics sessions can be saved by using the menu commands of the respective views. Note that if there has not been a profile or stat run, these commands will be disabled as there would be no data available to save.
These sessions will be located under the profiled project root with their user specified names.
Comparisons between sessions is supported by this plug-in, allowing for quick feedback about a program's performance.
To start a manual comparison select the comparison menu command.
Select and confirm the sessions you wish compare from the project explorer.
Depending on the type of comparison, the result will be displayed in a specific view.
Automatic comparison actions auto-select the most recent profiling sessions and display their result as above. Note that this type of comparison will only be enabled after profiling your project at least two times to gather enough data to compare.
To start an automatic comparison simply select the "Compare Latest" menu action.
