exclude
An option that excludes a module from instrumentation and data collection. Excluded modules do not appear in any of the data analysis windows or views.
Excluding modules is a good idea when you don't have debugging data for the module, when you want to improve instrumentation and run-time performance, or when you aren't interested in the measurement data for a module.
By default, certain modules in the Windows directories are excluded. Some of these modules, known as system modules, are always excluded and you cannot change their measurement level. The measurement level for these modules appears as (System). In addition, modules without debug line data and relocation data are excluded.
See also system modules and relocation data in the glossary.
