26 ;;; Commentary:
28 ;; If you want to profile a bunch of functions, set elp-function-list
29 ;; to the list of symbols, then do a M-x elp-instrument-list. This
30 ;; hacks those functions so that profiling information is recorded
31 ;; whenever they are called. To print out the current results, use
32 ;; M-x elp-results. If you want output to go to standard-output
33 ;; instead of a separate buffer, setq elp-use-standard-output to
34 ;; non-nil. With elp-reset-after-results set to non-nil, profiling
35 ;; information will be reset whenever the results are displayed. You
36 ;; can also reset all profiling info at any time with M-x
37 ;; elp-reset-all.
39 ;; You can also instrument all functions in a package, provided that
40 ;; the package follows the GNU coding standard of a common textual
41 ;; prefix. Use M-x elp-instrument-package for this.
43 ;; If you want to sort the results, set elp-sort-by-function to some
44 ;; predicate function. The three most obvious choices are predefined:
45 ;; elp-sort-by-call-count, elp-sort-by-average-time, and
46 ;; elp-sort-by-total-time. Also, you can prune from the output, all
47 ;; functions that have been called fewer than a given number of times
48 ;; by setting elp-report-limit.
50 ;; Elp can instrument byte-compiled functions just as easily as
51 ;; interpreted functions, but it cannot instrument macros. However,
52 ;; when you redefine a function (e.g. with eval-defun), you'll need to
53 ;; re-instrument it with M-x elp-instrument-function. This will also
54 ;; reset profiling information for that function. Elp can handle
55 ;; interactive functions (i.e. commands), but of course any time spent
56 ;; idling for user prompts will show up in the timing results.
58 ;; You can also designate a `master' function. Profiling times will
59 ;; be gathered for instrumented functions only during execution of
60 ;; this master function. Thus, if you have some defuns like:
62 ;; (defun foo () (do-something-time-intensive))
63 ;; (defun bar () (foo))
64 ;; (defun baz () (bar) (foo))
66 ;; and you want to find out the amount of time spent in bar and foo,
67 ;; but only during execution of bar, make bar the master. The call of
68 ;; foo from baz will not add to foo's total timing sums. Use M-x
69 ;; elp-set-master and M-x elp-unset-master to utilize this feature.
70 ;; Only one master function can be set at a time.
72 ;; You can restore any function's original function definition with
73 ;; elp-restore-function. The other instrument, restore, and reset
74 ;; functions are provided for symmetry.
76 ;; Here is a list of variable you can use to customize elp:
77 ;; elp-function-list
78 ;; elp-reset-after-results
79 ;; elp-sort-by-function
80 ;; elp-report-limit
82 ;; Here is a list of the interactive commands you can use:
83 ;; elp-instrument-function
84 ;; elp-restore-function
85 ;; elp-instrument-list
86 ;; elp-restore-list
87 ;; elp-instrument-package
88 ;; elp-restore-all
89 ;; elp-reset-function
90 ;; elp-reset-list
91 ;; elp-reset-all
92 ;; elp-set-master
93 ;; elp-unset-master
94 ;; elp-results
96 ;; Note that there are plenty of factors that could make the times
97 ;; reported unreliable, including the accuracy and granularity of your
98 ;; system clock, and the overhead spent in lisp calculating and
99 ;; recording the intervals. I figure the latter is pretty constant,
100 ;; so while the times may not be entirely accurate, I think they'll
101 ;; give you a good feel for the relative amount of work spent in the
102 ;; various lisp routines you are profiling. Note further that times
103 ;; are calculated using wall-clock time, so other system load will
104 ;; affect accuracy too.
106 ;;; Background:
108 ;; This program was inspired by the only two existing Emacs Lisp
109 ;; profilers that I'm aware of, Boaz Ben-Zvi's profile.el, and Root
110 ;; Boy Jim's profiler.el. Both were written for Emacs 18 and both were
111 ;; pretty good first shots at profiling, but I found that they didn't
112 ;; provide the functionality or interface that I wanted, so I wrote
113 ;; this. I've tested elp in XEmacs 19 and Emacs 19. There's no point
114 ;; in even trying to make this work with Emacs 18.
116 ;; Unlike previous profilers, elp uses Emacs 19's built-in function
117 ;; current-time to return interval times. This obviates the need for
118 ;; both an external C program and Emacs processes to communicate with
119 ;; such a program, and thus simplifies the package as a whole.
121 ;; TBD:
122 ;; Make this act like a real profiler, so that it records time spent
123 ;; in all branches of execution.
