Description: KCachegrind visualizes profiles (i.e. runtime characteristics) of applications in various ways, including call graph vizualisations and source/disassembler annotation. Use it to find performance bottlenecks in your program. It's designed to be responsive even with profile data of very large programs, such as KDE applications. Currently, it can load profiles generated by the cache simulation/call tracer Calltree, a Valgrind tool. Thus, profiling does not need any preparation, can cope with shared libraries and plugin architectures, and does not influence the measuring itself, however, the disadvantage to this is slower execution.Last changelog:
Converter scripts for OProfile, PERL, and PHP; Switching between multiple visualization layouts; Call graph can be exported as Image (PNG); Simultaneous display of 2 event types in Call and Annotation Views
in kcachegrind-0.4.5.tar.gz:
kcachegrind-0.4.5/doc/en/index.docbook
change its DOCTYPE line to
!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//KDE//DTD DocBook XML V4.2-Based Variant V1.1//EN" "/usr/share/apps/ksgmltools2/customization/dtd/kdex.dtd"
then the make should proceed ok. done on rh 7.3
get valgrind-2.0.0.tar.bz2, calltree-0.9.7.tar.gz, and kcachegrind-0.4.5.tar.gz and compile/install them in the above order, and go http://kcachegrind.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/show.cgi/KcacheGrindUsage you will get something to play. enjoy.

Hi, would it be possible to use syntax highlighting for the code view? :) Best regards, scummos
