There are 3 sections in the resulting output file of this stochastic quick analysis.
- The first section is a histogram of the timer intervals of that sample set. Each function occupies a region of addresses. One hundred times a second, the profiler samples the program address in the region of execution.
- In the second section, there is another histogram of the cumulative frequency of all things in the call stack and this should point out who is the culprit. For example, a codec calls a bunch of subroutines, the cost of the subroutines is accumulated to the codec parent caller. This makes the actual cpu user much more apparent.
- The last section is for the library spaces. Each library occupies a region and the profiler adds up the time spent in each of the libraries by frequency.
On the very bottom is a 1 line summary which shows you if there is a bad guy and who it is.
