Re: Profiling RPGLE programs

There is another utility written in C. They had it at my last work. I just
don't remember the name.

Depending on the job you want to trace you may also need STRSRVJOB.

There is a program trace utility from IBM. I am trying to find out what the
name is. Maybe somebody else knows. .

Subject: Profiling RPGLE programs

I have a request from a sister division to look at (and, hopefully
improve) a program that is VERY long running - like 2 days long.

My first thought was I need to know the hot spots in the program but, in
all my years on this platform, I've never needed to profile a program.

Does anyone have any tips, a simple cheat sheet, or primer on the steps
involved?

Thanks!
