rp2ps(1) Region-profile to Postscript generator rp2ps(1) NAME rp2ps - Region-profile to Postscript generator. Part of the MLKit Standard ML compiler. SYNOPSIS rp2ps [-region [filename]] [-stack [filename]] [-object regionNo [filename]] [-sampleMax n] [-sortByTime | -sortBySize] [-vert] [-eps width (in|mm|pt)] [-noOfBands n] [-comment time string] [-mark time] [-pregion regionNo] [-print] [-stat] [-findPrgPoint n] [-source filename] [-name name] [-interact] [-help] A description of the options are given below. DESCRIPTION When invoked, rp2ps reads a profile data file (default is profile.rp) and outputs a Postscript file according to the provided options. Given a profile data file profile.rp, executing rp2ps -region will generate a region profile, which will be stored in a file re- gion.ps. To get an overview of which program points allocate data in a particular region, use the -object option (see below). For the MLKit compiler to generate a profile data file to process with rp2ps , it is necessary to pass the option -prof to the MLKit exe- cutable. To learn more about region profiling with the MLKit, consult the MLKit manual "Programming with Regions in the MLKit", which is available from the MLKit home page and from the distributions. For more information about the MLKit, consult the MLKit home page: http://melsman.github.io/mlkit EXAMPLES For examples, consult the MLKit manual "Programming with Regions in the MLKit", which is available from the MLKit home page and from the dis- tributions. OPTIONS -region Profile all regions with respect to size (default output filename is region.ps). -stack Profile stack with respect to size (default output filename is stack.ps). -object N Profile all objects in region N. (default output filename is ob- jectN.ps, where N is a region number (region variable id). -sampleMax Use only n samples (default is 64). -sortByTime Choose samples equally distributed over sample time. This is the default behavior. -sortBySize Choose the largest samples. This is not the default behavior. -vert Put a vertical line in the region graph for each sample used. -eps Produce encapsulated postscript with specified width w in inches (in), millimeters (mm) or points(pt). -noOfBands N Maximum number of bands shown on the region graph. Default (and possible maximum) is 20. -fixedYRange N Use N (bytes) as fixed range of y-axis, -1 means no fixed range on y-axis. -useTickNo Use tick numbers on x-axis instead of elapsed time. -comment t str Insert comment str (one word only) at time t in the region graph. -mark t Insert mark at time t in the region graph. -pregion N Print region information about region variable N on stdout. -print Print all profiling data on stdout. -stat Print statistics on stdout. -findPrgPoint N Print regions containing program point N. -source name Specify name of profile data file (default is profile.rp). -name name Name to print on top of region graph (default is rp2ps). -interactive Enter interactive mode. -help Print help information and exit. EXIT STATUS Exits with status 0 on success and -1 on failure. CREDITS The MLKit (version 2 and beyond) was developed by Lars Birkedal, Martin Elsman, Niels Hallenberg, Tommy H. Olesen, Mads Tofte, and Carsten Varming. People who have contributed with bug-fixes and improvements include Peter Bertelsen, Ken Friis Larsen, Henning Niss, and Peter Ses- toft. Nick Rothwell and David N. Turner took part in the development of the MLKit version 1.
