Process focus buttons
The CPU activity, CPU Wait, and the GPU activity charts are special charts types. They have a
button on the left side of the chart handle that enables you to select that chart as the current focus
of the processes section. By default, this is set to the CPU activity chart.
Figure 6-12 The Processes Focus button
If you click a Processes Focus button on one of the bar charts, the processes section updates to
show a heat map of processes that contributed to activity in the newly selected bar chart. For
example, if you click the Processes Focus button on the GPU Vertex chart, the processes section
updates to show heat mapped activity for the GPU vertex processor only. The GPU charts are
only available if you have captured data on a Mali-400 target and built the gator module to
support Mali.
