Making Software Performance
Measurements
The Software Performance Measurement Tool (SPMT) is a feature of the Softkey
Interface that allows you to make software performance measurements on your
programs.
The SPMT allows you to make some of the measurements that are possible with the
HP 64708 Software Performance Analyzer and its Graphical User Interface
(HP B1487).
The SPMT post-processes information from the analyzer trace list. When you end
a performance measurement, the SPMT dumps the post-processed information to a
binary file, which is then read using the perf32 report generator utility.
Two types of software performance measurements can be made with the SPMT:
activity measurements, and duration measurements.
This chapter describes tasks you perform while using the Software Performance
Measurement Tool (SPMT). These tasks are grouped into the following sections:
