Thread: [Chromium-dev] Profiling Chromium?

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

I built with CFLAGS and LDFLAGS including "-g and -pg".  However, I'm 
not getting the gmon.out files I'm used to seeing, and that I get with 
other apps.  What's the trick here?

Thanks,
Mike

You have to use oprofile. Make sure your kernel is enabled for it.

Why? Is it because the profiling version of libc is static?

Nope. It's just happens to be the profiler that we use the most around
here. It's not as intrusive as gprof and gives me better information. I
can profile all of the bits and pieces of Chromium at once and I can get
a far more accurate set of numbers.
