Performance Profiling and Analysis
Understanding the behavior of your system is critical to making informed decisions about optimization choices. Some tools like profilers, analyzers, or debuggers are full-featured. Other tools like interval timers, kernel timers, and print statements are lighter weight. But all of them serve an important purpose in the optimization process.
This section covers topics related to these tools’ use for software optimization.
