<h2>Profiling</h2>
<ul>
CodeSleuth is designed to profile the performance of
methods compiled by a JVM, using either
Timer-Based Profiling or Event-Based Profiling.
<h2>Timer-Based Profiling (TBP)</h2>
<ul>
<p>
The application to be optimized is run at
full speed on the system that is running
AMD CodeAnalyst™. EIP samples are collected at
predetermined intervals and can be used to
identify possible bottlenecks, execution
penalties, or optimization opportunities.
</p>
<p>
On APIC enabled systems, the finest time
resolution is 0.1ms and 1.0ms on non-APIC
enabled systems.
</p>
</ul>
<h2>Event-Based Profiling (EBP)</h2>
<ul>
CodeSleuth EBP is designed to profile the hardware
performance events on AMD processors.
