+
+ +

eprof has been reimplemented with support in + the Erlang virtual machine and is now both faster (i.e. + slows down the code being measured less) and scales much + better. In measurements we saw speed-ups compared to the + old eprof ranging from 6 times (for sequential code that + only uses one scheduler/core) up to 84 times (for + parallel code that uses 8 cores).

+

Note: The API for the eprof has been cleaned up + and extended. See the documentation.
