NAME

       kcachegrind - a visualisation tool for valgrind profiling output

SYNOPSIS

       kcachegrind [ generic-options ] [ -r exec ] [ trace-file ]

DESCRIPTION

       KCachegrind  is  a  visualisation  tool  for  the  profiling data generated by calltree, a
       profiling skin for valgrind.  Applications can be profiled using  calltree  without  being
       recompiled, and shared libraries and plugin architectures are supported.

       For  visualising  the output from other profiling tools, several converters are available.
       On Debian systems these can be found in the kcachegrind-converters package.

       This application is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

OPTIONS

       Below  are  the  kcachegrind-specific  options.   For  a  full  summary  of  options,  run
       kcachegrind --help.

       -r exec
              Run the program exec under cachegrind.

       trace-file
              Visualise data from the given trace.
