Types of Data You Can View and Analyze

You can analyze the following types of data by selecting them from the Data list in the Sampling Analyzer window:

• Process Times -- Summary of process state times (includes User Time, System Wait Time, System Time, Text Page Fault Time, and Data Page Fault Time)

• User Time -- Time spent in the user process state from the execution of instructions

• System Wait Time -- Time the process is sleeping in the kernel but is not in the suspend, idle, lock wait, text fault, or data fault state

• System Time -- Time the operating system spent executing system calls

• Text Page Fault Time -- Time spent faulting in text pages

• Data Page Fault Time -- Time spent faulting in data pages

• Program Sizes -- Sizes in bytes of the functions, modules, and segments of your application; in conjunction with Address Space data, allows you to examine the size of your application and helps you establish specific memory requirements

• Address Space -- Reference behavior of both text pages and data pages; in conjunction with Program Sizes data, allows you to examine the size of your application and helps you establish specific memory requirements

• Execution Statistics -- Overall statistics on the execution of the application
