save-current-profile

Arguments: variable

This macro saves the contents of the current runtime analysis into the named variable (which is not evaluated). A runtime analysis must be in the :analyzed state (as returned by profiler-status) to be saved.

profiler-status returns :analyzed after show-call-graph or show-flat-profile have been run at least once on collected data. The following results in data being saved and made the value of the symbol foo:

(prof:with-profiling (:type :time) <forms>)
(prof:show-flat-profile)
(prof:save-current-profile foo)

Saving a runtime analysis with save-current-profile allows you to analyze the data at your leisure, running other analyses in the meantime. The keyword argument current-profile to show-call-graph and show-flat-profile can take a saved analysis instead of the default (which is the currently running or last run analysis) and display results using that profile.

See runtime-analyzer.htm for general information on the runtime analyzer.
