NAME

       dprof2calltree - convert perl's DProf profiling data to KCachegrind calltree format

SYNOPSIS

       dprof2calltree -f input [ -o output ]

DESCRIPTION

       dprof2calltree  reads  the tmon.out profiling data output by Perl's Devel::DProf profiling
       package, and converts it into calltree format for use by KCachegrind.

       This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

OPTIONS

       -f input
              Specifies the DProf tmon.out file to convert.

       -o output
              Write the calltree output to the given file for use by  KCachegrind.   If  omitted,
              the output will be written to file of the form cachgrind.out.<input>.

EXAMPLE

       If you run a perl script as:

              perl -d:DProf yourscript.pl

       then  this  will  write  profiling  data to tmon.out.  You can then work with this data in
       KCachegrind as follows:

              dprof2calltree -f tmin.out -o cachegrind.out.foo
              kcachegrind cachegrind.out.foo

SEE ALSO

       kcachegrind(1).
