Using the Chromium Tracing interface

An alternative to the CxxProf GUI is to use Google Chrome and its Tracing interface for displaying the data. Let's say you used the Usage Guide and now have a SQLite database of your CxxProf session. Just perform the following steps to get that data into Chrome:

  • Use the cxxprof_dbConvert Python script to convert the SQLite-db into the needed JSON format
    • convert.py session_xyz.db
  • Open up Google Chrome
  • Visit about://tracing
  • Use the load button to bring in the data

There is a guide from Google Chromium showing how the tool is used.
