72
+ <h1>ruby-prof</h1>
73
+ <h2>Overview</h2>
74
+ <p>
75
+ ruby-prof is a fast code profiler for Ruby. Its features include:
76
+ </p>
77
+ <ul>
78
+ <li>Speed - it is a C extension and therefore many times faster than the
79
+ standard Ruby profiler.
80
+
81
+ </li>
82
+ <li>Flat Profiles - similar to the reports generated by the standard Ruby
83
+ profiler
84
+
85
+ </li>
86
+ <li>Graph profiles - similar to GProf, these show how long a method runs, which
87
+ methods call it and which methods it calls.
88
+
89
+ </li>
90
+ <li>Threads - supports profiling multiple threads simultaneously
91
+
92
+ </li>
93
+ <li>Recursive calls - supports profiling recursive method calls
94
+
95
+ </li>
96
+ <li>Reports - can generate both text and cross-referenced html reports
97
+
98
+ </li>
99
+ <li>Output - can output to standard out or to a file
100
+
101
+ </li>
102
+ </ul>
103
+ <h2>Requirements</h2>
104
+ <p>
105
+ ruby-prof requires Ruby 1.8.2 or higher.
106
+ </p>
107
+ <p>
108
+ If you are running Linux or Unix you&#8217;ll need a C compiler so the
109
+ extension can be compiled when it is installed.
110
+ </p>
111
+ <p>
112
+ If you are running Windows, then install the Windows specific RubyGem which
113
+ includes an already built extension.
114
+ </p>
115
+ <h2>Install</h2>
116
+ <p>
117
+ ruby-prof is provided as a RubyGem. To install:
118
+ </p>
119
+ <p>
120
+ <tt>gem install ruby-prof</tt>
121
+ </p>
122
+ <p>
123
+ If you are running Windows, make sure to install the Win32 RubyGem which
124
+ includes a pre-built binary.
125
+ </p>
126
+ <h2>Usage</h2>
127
+ <p>
128
+ There are three ways of running ruby-prof.
129
+ </p>
130
+ <h3>ruby-prof executable</h3>
131
+ <p>
132
+ The first is to use ruby-prof to run the Ruby program you want to profile.
133
+ For more information refer to the ruby-prof <a
134
+ href="bin/ruby-prof.html">documentation</a>.
135
+ </p>
136
+ <h3>ruby-prof API</h3>
137
+ <p>
138
+ The second way is to use the ruby-prof API to profile particular segments
139
+ of code.
140
+ </p>
141
+ <pre>
142
+ require 'ruby-prof'
143
+
144
+ # Profile the code
145
+ RubyProf.start
146
+ ...
147
+ [code to profile]
148
+ ...
149
+ result = RubyProf.end
150
+
151
+ # Print a flat profile to text
152
+ printer = RubyProf::TextPrinter.new(result)
153
+ printer.print(STDOUT, 0)
154
+ </pre>
155
+ <p>
156
+ Alternatively, you can use a block to tell ruby-prof what to profile:
157
+ </p>
158
+ <pre>
159
+ require 'ruby-prof'
160
+
161
+ # Profile the code
162
+ result = RubyProf.profile do
163
+ ...
164
+ [code to profile]
165
+ ...
166
+ end
167
+
168
+ # Print a graph profile to text
169
+ printer = RubyProf::GraphPrinter.new(result)
170
+ printer.print(STDOUT, 0)
171
+ </pre>
172
+ <h3>require unprof</h3>
173
+ <p>
174
+ The third way of using ruby-prof is by requiring unprof.rb:
175
+ </p>
176
+ <pre>
177
+ require 'unprof'
178
+ </pre>
179
+ <p>
180
+ This will start profiling immediately and will output the results using a
181
+ flat profile report.
182
+ </p>
183
+ <p>
184
+ This method is provided for backwards compatibility. Using <a
185
+ href="bin/ruby-prof.html">ruby-prof</a> provides more flexibility.
186
+ </p>
187
+ <h2>Reports</h2>
188
+ <p>
189
+ ruby-prof can generate flat profile and graph profile reports.
190
+ </p>
191
+ <p>
192
+ Flat profiles show the overall time spent in each method. They are a good
193
+ of quickly identifying which methods take the most time. An example of a
194
+ flat profile and an explanation can be found in <a
195
+ href="examples/flat_txt.html">examples/flat.txt</a>.
196
+ </p>
197
+ <p>
198
+ Graph profiles also show the overall time spent in each method. In
199
+ addition, they also show which methods call the current method and which
200
+ methods its calls. Thus they are good for understanding how methods gets
201
+ called and provide insight into the flow of your program. Graph profiles
202
+ can be generated in text and html. Since the html is cross-referenced it is
203
+ easier to work with. An example text graph profile is located at <a
204
+ href="examples/graph_txt.html">examples/graph.txt</a> while an example html
205
+ graph file is located at <a
206
+ href="examples/graph_html.html">examples/graph.html</a>.
207
+ </p>
208
+ <p>
209
+ Reports are created by printers. The current printers include:
210
+ </p>
211
+ <ul>
212
+ <li><a href="../classes/RubyProf/FlatPrinter.html">RubyProf::FlatPrinter</a> -
213
+ Creates a flat report in text format
214
+
215
+ </li>
216
+ <li><a href="../classes/RubyProf/GraphPrinter.html">RubyProf::GraphPrinter</a>
217
+ - Creates a call graph report in text format
218
+
219
+ </li>
220
+ <li><a
221
+ href="../classes/RubyProf/GraphHtmlPrinter.html">RubyProf::GraphHtmlPrinter</a>
222
+ - Creates a call graph report in HTML (separate files per thread)
223
+
224
+ </li>
225
+ </ul>
226
+ <p>
227
+ To use a printer:
228
+ </p>
229
+ <pre>
230
+ result = RubyProf.end
231
+ printer = RubyProf::GraphPrinter.new(result)
232
+ printer.print(STDOUT, 0)
233
+ </pre>
234
+ <p>
235
+ The first parameter is any writable IO object such as STDOUT or a file. The
236
+ second parameter, which has a default value of 0, specifies the minimum
237
+ percentage a method must take to be printed. For more information please
238
+ see the documentation for the different printers.
239
+ </p>
240
+ <h2>Timing Data</h2>
241
+ <p>
242
+ Depending on the mode and platform, ruby-prof can measure time in three
243
+ ways - process time, wall time and cpu time.
244
+ </p>
245
+ <p>
246
+ Process time measures the time used by a process between any two moments.
247
+ It is unaffected by other processes concurrently running on the system.
248
+ Note that Windows does not support measuring process times - therefore, all
249
+ measurements on Windows use wall time.
250
+ </p>
251
+ <p>
252
+ Wall time measures the real-world time elapsed between any two moments. If
253
+ there are other processes concurrently running on the system that use
254
+ significant CPU or disk time during a profiling run then the reported
255
+ results will be too large.
256
+ </p>
257
+ <p>
258
+ CPU time uses the CPU clock counter to measure time. The returned values
259
+ are dependent on the correctly setting the CPU&#8217;s frequency. This mode
260
+ is only supported on Pentium or PowerPC platforms.
261
+ </p>
262
+ <p>
263
+ To set the clock_mode:
264
+ </p>
265
+ <pre>
266
+ RubyProf.clock_mode = RubyProf::PROCESS_TIME
267
+ RubyProf.clock_mode = RubyProf::WALL_TIME
268
+ RubyProf.clock_mode = RubyProf::CPU_TIME
269
+ </pre>
270
+ <p>
271
+ This default value is PROCESS_TIME.
272
+ </p>
273
+ <p>
274
+ You may also specify the clock_mode by using the RUBY_PROF_CLOCK_MODE
275
+ environment variable:
276
+ </p>
277
+ <pre>
278
+ export RUBY_PROF_CLOCK_MODE=process
279
+ export RUBY_PROF_CLOCK_MODE=wall
280
+ export RUBY_PROF_CLOCK_MODE=cpu
281
+ </pre>
282
+ <p>
283
+ Note that these values have changed since ruby-prof-0.3.0.
284
+ </p>
285
+ <p>
286
+ On Linux, process time is measured using the clock method provided by the C
287
+ runtime library. Note that the clock method does not report time spent in
288
+ the kernel or child processes and therefore does not measure time spent in
289
+ methods such as Kernel.sleep method. If you need to measure these values,
290
+ then use wall time. Wall time is measured using the gettimeofday kernel
291
+ method.
292
+ </p>
293
+ <p>
294
+ On Windows, timings are always wall times. If you set the clock mode to
295
+ PROCESS_TIME, then timing are read using the clock method provided by the C
296
+ runtime library. Note though, these values are wall times on Windows and
297
+ not process times like on Linux. Wall time is measured using the
298
+ GetLocalTime API.
299

301
+ On both platforms, cpu time is measured using the RDTSC assembly function
302
+ provided by the Pentium and PowerPC platforms. CPU time is dependent on the
303
+ cpu&#8217;s frequency. On Linux, ruby-prof attempts to read this value from
304
+ &quot;/proc/cpuinfo.&quot; On Windows, you must specify the clock
305
+ frequency. This can be done using the RUBY_PROF_CPU_FREQUENCY environment
306
+ variable:
307
+ </p>
308
+ <pre>
309
+ export RUBY_PROF_CPU_FREQUENCY=&lt;value&gt;
310
+ </pre>
311
+ <p>
312
+ You can also directly set the cpu frequency by calling:
313
+ </p>
314
+ <pre>
315
+ RubyProf.cpu_frequency = &lt;value&gt;
316
+ </pre>
317
+ <h2>Recursive Calls</h2>
318
+ <p>
319
+ Recursive calls occur when method A calls method A and cycles occur when
320
+ method A calls method B calls method C calls method A. ruby-prof can detect
321
+ recursive calls any cycle calls, but does not currently report these in its
322
+ output.
323
+ </p>
324
+ <p>
325
+ However, the self time values for recursive calls should always be
326
+ accurate. It is also believed that the total times are accurate, but these
327
+ should be carefully analyzed to verify their veracity.
328
+ </p>
329
+ <h2>Performance</h2>
330
+ <p>
331
+ Significant effort has been put into reducing ruby-prof&#8217;s overhead as
332
+ much as possible. Our tests show that the overhead associated with
333
+ profiling code varies considerably with the code being profiled. On the low
334
+ end overhead is around 10% while on the high end its can around 80%.
335

336
+ <h2>Windows Binary</h2>
337
+ <p>
338
+ The Windows binary is built with the latest version of MinGW.
