TAU and JAVA

[comparison]

TAU can be used to profile and trace Java (JDK1.2+) applications. There is NO need to modify the

  1. application source code
  2. byte code
    or
  3. the Java Virtual Machine.
The above figure shows a Java collaborative visualization environment, SciVis, from NPAC, Syracuse University. To instrument this, we used: 

% cd <taudir>
% ./configure -jdk=<dir_where_jdk_is_installed>
% setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $LD_LIBRARY_PATH\:<taudir>/<arch>/lib
% java -XrunTAU svserver
