Function List View Tab - Data Browser Window (Memory Profiling)

Illustration        Related Topics

The Function List View shows memory profiling data for all .NET managed classes, including:

, method, and source file names. A source file name is displayed only if one is available for a method.

§          Number of times a method is called.

§          Number of objects currently allocated to a method.

§          Current and total method bytes allocated.

§          Method + descendants (M+D) bytes.

§          Method and M+D bytes as a percent of the current focus (for example, .Root.).

§          Average, minimum and maximum bytes allocated by a method.

§          Whether a method's M+D bytes includes memory data from hidden methods.

 

You can do the following operations in the function list:

Do this

Sort data

Click a column heading to sort by that column or to change the sort order to ascending or descending.

Show or hide columns  

Right-click in any column heading and select Show/Hide Columns from the shortcut menu. You can also drag the right border of a column heading completely to the left to hide the column; use the Show/Hide Columns dialog box to redisplay the column.

Rearrange columns

Drag a column by its heading to a new position.

Resize columns

Drag the right border of a column heading to any width or double-click the right border to automatically resize the column to fit the data. You can also right-click in any column heading and select Size All to Fit from the shortcut menu to resize all columns, or Size to Fit to resize the current column.

Notes:

§      If a numeric value is too long to be completely displayed in a column, Purify displays ###. For long text strings, Purify displays as much of the string as possible and then an ellipsis (). You can resize the columns to fully display the data.

§      By default, Purify displays commas in numeric values, as in 1,244,329.68. You can turn off this setting in the Preferences dialog box.

§      When you compare runs, the diff Function List View shows the differences, as well as the original data for the two runs (identified as New and Base).

§      You can select data and copy it to the clipboard, to use in Microsoft Excel, for example.

§      Right-click in the Function List View to display a shortcut menu for working with the list.
