Examples To cause the processed trace information to be dumped to the "perf.out" file:
performance_measurement_end
To create a performance measurement report
•
Use the perf32 command at the UNIX prompt.
The perf32 report generator utility must be used to read the information in
the "perf.out" file and other files dumped by the SPMT (in other words,
renamed "perf.out" files). The perf32 utility is run from the UNIX shell. You
can fork a shell while in the Softkey Interface and run perf32, or you can exit
the Softkey Interface and run perf32.
Options to "perf32"
A default report, containing all performance measurement information, is
generated when the perf32 command is used without any options. The
options available with perf32 allow you to limit the information in the
generated report. These options are described below.
-h Produce outputs limited to histograms.
-s Produce a summary limited to the statistical data.
-p
Produce a summary limited to the program activity.
-m Produce a summary limited to the memory activity.
-f <file> Produce a report based on the information contained in <file> instead of the
information contained in perf.out.
For example, the following commands save the current performance
measurement information in a file called "perf1.out", and produce a histogram
showing only the program activity occupied by the functions and variables.
mv perf.out perf1.out
perf32 -hpf perf1.out
