> Another question, what is the difference of -s versus -S and -p versus > -P, respectively? -S and -P turn on sampling. -S does 'whole system' sampling. -P is process specific (i.e., the counters only count when the target process(es) are running). So: # pmcstat -S instructions -O /tmp/foo.out will collect samples. # pmcstat -g -R /tmp/foo.out will convert the sample log to gprof(1) compatible 'gmon.out' files. Sampling on the AMD64 requires a patch to current [I'll commit it shortly]. > Thanks for great work. Thanks. Regards, Koshy <jkoshy_at_freebsd.org>Received on Fri Jul 29 2005 - 01:11:07 UTC
