[comp.sys.mac.programmer] LSC profiling, bugs, missing features

tedj@hpcilzb.HP.COM (Ted Johnson) (08/31/88)

I finally got around to using LSC's profiler, to try to optimize
my code.  Unfortunately, it only tells you the execution time spent
in routines that *your* define.  

Q: does anyone know of a program/utility/environment which will tell
   you how much time your program spends calling various Toolbox traps?


BTW, I discovered 2 bugs in LSC 2.15:  

BUG #1:	you have to recheck the "profile" box in the options menu 
	EACH TIME YOU RECOMPILE.  It would seem that this setting would 
	get saved in your project file, but it doesn't.  If you click the
	"save settings" button, then EVERY project will have this setting.  :-(

BUG #2:  I get vicious system errors whenever I try to use profiling with 
         a project that uses dialog boxes, windows, etc.  I guess stdio and
         the Mac environment don't mix.  :-(
