NAME¶
kcachegrind - a visualisation tool for valgrind profiling output
SYNOPSIS¶
kcachegrind [

DESCRIPTION¶
KCachegrind is a visualisation tool for the profiling data generated by
calltree, a profiling skin for
valgrind. Applications can be
profiled using calltree without being recompiled, and shared libraries and
plugin architectures are supported.
For visualising the output from other profiling tools, several converters are
available. On Debian systems these can be found in the
kcachegrind-converters package.
This application is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.
OPTIONS¶
Below are the kcachegrind-specific options. For a full summary of options, run
kcachegrind --help.
- -r exec
- Run the program exec under cachegrind.
- trace-file
- Visualise data from the given trace.
