There are a few parameters which need to be set when doing comparisons between trials in the database. If any necessary setting is not configured before requesting a chart, you will be prompted to set the value. The following settings may be necessary for the various charts available:
TAU events are often associated with common groups, such as "MPI", "TRANSPOSE", etc. This value is used for showing what fraction of runtime that this group of events contributed to the total runtime.
Profiles may contain many metrics gathered for a single trial. This selects which of the available metrics the user is interested in.
Some charts examine events in isolation. This setting configures which event to examine.
