The MULTI profiler ("the profiler") is a tool that gathers important data about the execution of your program. This data can greatly improve the performance of existing programs.
To compile a program with one or more of the profiling options:
The Performance Analysis drop-down list box contains the Functions and Graph options mentioned below. These options are equivalent to the -p and -pg compiler options. Coverage Analysis is equivalent to compiling with the -a compiler option.
Support for profiling and the steps necessary to collect profile data may vary depending on your target environment. Please consult the Profiling Targets section of this Chapter and your target's Development Guide for additional target-specific information on using the profiler.
