Re: PAPI in the ports

Hi

Thats sounds nice. You wrote "The goal of the PmcTools project is to
provide FreeBSD's developers and system administrators with
non-intrusive, low-overhead and innovative ways of measuring and
analysing system performance" your website. Have you ever measured the
performance impact of such tools?

I'm interested to run such tool on production machines in the future but
only if the performance impact isn't that high.

Regards,
Thomas

Hello,

I'm glad to announce you that PAPI-3.5.0 has reached the FreeBSD ports
tree and now it's generally available for all FreeBSD users.

Port information is available at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=papi&stype=all&sektion=devel

See http://code.google.com/p/papi-for-freebsd/wiki/HowToInstall for
installation instructions.

There are some issues with P4 processors that need to be fixed on
PAPI_write / PAPI_reset routines, but the package have the minimal (and
most
important functionality) working fine for the rest of the substrates.
