For the program I am working on, it is critical for me to find out how long a few functions take to execute in relation to the rest, so I can find out what's eating up the most cpu time. Is there some sort of program to do this? I thought I heard some mention of this in the past. (The code is in Aztec) thanks much - ------------------------------------------------------ Quantum _\/_ 2727 Eel Bruce (6502 RULES!)

There's a profiler written by Tom Rockiki (sp?) that does exactly this. It not only runs under Aztec but was shipped as a part of Aztec 3.2, 3.4 and 3.6. Have a look on your distribution disks -- I bet it's on there. -- -- uunet!sugar!karl "There is hopeful symbolism in the fact that -- flags do not wave in a vacuum." -- Arthur C.

Is there some sort >of program to do this? There is a profiler from Radial Eye Software (Tomas Rokicki) for Aztec Code which replaces all link and unlink ops which denote function entry and exit points with calls to its own counting routines. Works fine for me, with both 3.4 and 3.6, and is available on Fish #48 (yes, it's quite old, but still up to date). -- Lars Soltau bang: ...uunet!unido!nadia!ncc1701!space BIX: --no bucks-- smart: ncc1701!space@nadia.UUCP

Is there some sort >of program to do this? Lattice 5.x includes a profiler LPROF/LSTAT with the package to do exactly what you want. It will report down to the line number where your code is spending the most time. The 5.04 update includes an option on LPROF to control the rate of sampling. Note that the profiler also works to the source line with Asm stuff that has line number information (supported by CAPE and the Lattice Assembler). /*---------------------All standard Disclaimers apply---------------------*/ /*----Working for but not officially representing SAS or Lattice Inc.-----*/ /*----John A.
