[looking for testers] graprof - a profiling and trace analysis tool
 
Hi People,

After two months of vigorous work, I have put together a runtime and memory profiler for C on GNU/Linux.
I call it graprof, and it is available for free (as in free beer) and licensed under the GPL.

If you want to check it out, and possibly also give some feedback *cough* cheap plug *cough*, have a look at http://graprof.grapentin.org.

It's just as simple to use as gprof! :cool:

thanks,
Andy

is it jusf for C or can I use it also with C++ applications.

To be honest, I have not tried it with C++.

However, the general functionality should be working. The output may be less useful though, especially of the memory profile.
The memory profiler works by hooking calls to malloc and friends, which are, as far as I know, also used under the hood of c++'s new operator.

So, I think it will work, but I am not perfectly sure. If you want to try it out, it would be cool if you would let me know how it went :)

Thanks!
Andy
