NAME

mprof-report - report generator for Mono's log profiler  

SYNOPSIS

mprof-report [option]... file.mlpd  

DESCRIPTION

mprof-report is the report generator for Mono's log profiler. It reads the MLPD log files produced by the log profiler and generates a report based on the options passed to it. The output is based on individual reports which can be turned on or off. By default, all reports are generated in summary form (i.e., non-verbose output).

mprof-report can read both normal and gzip(1)-compressed log files transparently.

For information about how to use the log profiler with a program, see the mono-profilers(1) page, under the LOG PROFILER section.  

OPTIONS

The following options are available:
--help
Displays usage instructions.
--out=file
Write the report output to file instead of standard output.
--traces
Show backtraces in reports when available.
--maxframes=num
Limit backtraces to num frames.
--reports=reports
Generate only the specified reports. reports is a comma-separated list of reports. See the REPORTS section.
--method-sort=mode
Sort methods according to mode, which can be one of:
total (default)
Sort by the total amount of time spent in a method and its callees.
self
Sort by the amount of time spent only within a method itself.
calls
Sort by the total amount of calls made to a method.
--alloc-sort=mode
Sort allocations according to mode, which can be one of:
bytes (default)
Sort by the amount of heap bytes occupied by all allocated objects of a type.
count
Sort by the total amount of allocations of a type.
--counters-sort=mode
Sort counters according to mode. This alters how the counters report is presented. It can be one of:
time (default)
Present a list of samples, each containing a list of counter name-value pairs.
category
Present a list of counter names, each containing a list of sampled values.
This option has no effect unless --verbose is passed.
--track=objects
Track what happens to the specified objects. objects is a comma-separated list of object addresses.
--find=spec
Find and track what happens to objects matching spec, which can have one of these forms:
S:minimum_size
Look for objects that are at least minimum_size bytes in size.
T:name_fragment
Look for objects whose type name contain name_fragment.
Both an S and T spec can be given by passing the option twice.
--thread=tid
Consider only events from the thread with ID tid.
--time=span
Consider only events occurring in the specified time span. span must be of the form from-to where from and to are seconds since the program started.
--verbose
Print verbose output.
--debug
Print extremely detailed debug output. Most users should not use this option.

header
Program startup and profiler version and operational information.
jit
