Statement performance table

The statement performance table shows the performance of each COBOL statement within a main source file or copybook.

Statement performance table panel

In the statement performance table, users can find the following information:
  • Source line: The source line number of the statement.
  • Program CPU percentage: The percentage of the total CPU usage the statement consumed in the program.
  • Statement: The first part of the COBOL statement up to 60 characters.
Users can also copy the information in the row or jump to the source line.
Note: In copybooks, application CPU percentage is used instead of program CPU percentage.
  • Application CPU percentage: The percentage of the total CPU usage the statement consumed in the application.
In the drop-down section of each row, users can find the following information:
  • Timing statistics: These are shown across the statement, program, and application.
    • CPU time: The total amount of time the CPU spent running the statement, program, and application.
    • Samples: The total number of times the profiler observed the execution of instructions for the selected statement.
  • Notifications: Any suggestions for performance optimization or other messages.
Note: Copybook reports only show timing statistics across the statement and application.

Use the statement performance table to identify areas of high CPU consumption in your COBOL source files and copybooks.
