RussianQuestion
I want to find profiler like vtune or oprofile on FreeBSD. Do you know any similar?
Solution
The equivalent of oprofile on FreeBSD is hwpmc. It can do both system and process profiling; as of FreeBSD 7.2 it has callchain capture. There's lots of information about it at http://wiki.freebsd.org/PmcTools and the pmcstat man page contains instructions for profiling applications too.
OTHER TIPS
Well, if you're trying to find a performance problem, it doesn't use a profiler, but this works.
