Hi Jason,
Unix "time" returns 43.833s. gprof returns 438 seconds. Either I'm going crazy or gprof is reporting a 10x increase? What could be causing this?
A bug of some kind. Presumably in gprof.
user 0m43.646s
Each sample counts as 0.01 seconds. % cumulative self self total time seconds seconds calls s/call s/call name 87.46 381.78 381.78 256 1.49 1.49 readMB 12.95 438.32 56.53 256 0.22 0.22 writeMB
Suppose that gprof had the wrong period for the sample. Suppose for example that each sample counted as 0.06 seconds. Then we can deduce that the actual cumulative time in seconds would be:
438.32 * 6 = 2629.92 seconds or 2629.92 / 60 = 43.83 minutes
Which is pretty much what you are expecting yes ?
Cheers Nick
