This generally has a name of the form \fIpprof.XXXXX.Y\fP. The calltree output for KCachegrind will then be written to the file \fIcachegrind.out.XXXXX.Y\fP. .SH EXAMPLE Suppose you profile a script with APD and obtain the pprof trace file \fIpprof.12345.1\fP. You can then work with this data in KCachegrind as follows. .PP .RS pprof2calltree -f pprof.12345.1 .br kcachegrind cachegrind.out.12345.1 .RE .PP .SH SEE ALSO .BR kcachegrind (1). .SH AUTHOR This converter was written by George Schlossnagle <george@omniti.com>. .br This manual page was prepared by Ben Burton <bab@debian.org> for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others).
