Profiler preferences
Use the Profiler preferences to configure the default Map Profiler utility settings.
Before profiling a map, you must enable a Function Times option or a Type Times option to see statistics in the output, otherwise the report is empty.
To access user preferences, click Window > Preferences > Transformation Extender > Map > Profiler.
To run a map using the Map Profiler utility to capture and report map execution statistics, you must configure the profiler settings in the Map Designer for the following profiler options:
Function times
Enable the All or Above option to view function time statistics in the profiler report.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| None | (Default setting) When None is enabled, function time statistics are not reported. |
| All | When you select All, each function and each function call is provided in the profiler output. Every occurrence of every function is displayed with the depth (level), number of iterations, elapsed time, map name, and type name. |
| Above | Use the Above option to obtain a smaller output file. When you specify a value in 1/10 milliseconds (10000 = 1 second), function times are only recorded when they exceed that value. |
| Summary | When you choose the Summary option, the report contains a summary for each function instead of listing every occurrence. A function is listed once with the total number of iterations and total elapsed time for all iterations. Sample report. |
Type times
Enable the All or Above option to view type time statistics in the profiler report.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| None | (Default setting) When None is enabled, type time statistics are not reported. |
| All | When you select All, each type per rule is provided in the profiler output. For each rule, the time, map name, and type name are reported. |
| Above | Use the Above option to obtain a smaller output file. When you specify a value in 1/10 milliseconds (10000 = 1 second), types times are only recorded when they exceed that value. |
| Summary | When you choose the Summary option, the report contains a summary of types per rule. A type name is displayed once with the total number of iterations and total elapsed time for those iterations. Sample report |
File output
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Fixed Width | This option produces a readable, flat file output. |
| Comma Delimited | This option produces a comma-delimited output which is useful for exporting to spreadsheet programs. |
