Specifying Measuring Mode

You can specify whether to trace functions calls while profile data is acquired. When function
calls are traced, the relations of function calls during user program execution are displayed as a
tree diagram. When not traced, the relations of function calls cannot be displayed, but the time for
acquiring profile data can be reduced.
To stop tracing function calls, choose [Disable Tree (Not traces function call)] from the pop-up
menu in the [Profile] window (a check mark is shown to the left of the menu item).
When acquiring profile data of the program in which functions are called in a special way, such as
