This is a major redesign a modernization of Sysprof. The core data structures and design are largely the same, but it has been ported to Gtk3 and has lots of additions that should make your profiling experience smoother. Especially for those that are new to profiling. There are some very simple help docs added, but we really need the experts to come in and write some documentation here.

# Sysprof 2.x
|
|
|
|
## Design
|
|
|
|
### libsysprof-2
|
|
|
|
This library provides various UI components and profiling tools as a library.
|
|
It is intended to be used from IDEs such as GNOME Builder.
|
|
|
|
### sysprofd
|
|
|
|
Sometimes, your current user does not have the required capabilities
|
|
such as (`CAP_SYS_ADMIN`) to access performance counters. This daemon provides
|
|
a way to get access to those counters while going through the normal
|
|
authorization flow users are familiar with.
|
|
|
|
### sysprof-cli
|
|
|
|
This is a command line tool to help you capture in an automated fashion or
|
|
when you don't have access to a UI or want to remove the UI overhead from
|
|
system traces.
|
|
|
|
### sysprof
|
|
|
|
This is the tranditional Sysprof interface. It uses libsysprof-2 to setup
|
|
and manage performance counters and display results.
