Introduction

This project includes two main tools:

• aprof is a Valgrind tool for performance profiling designed to help developers discover hidden asymptotic inefficiencies in the code. From a single run of a program, aprof measures how the performance of individual routines scales as a function of the input size, yielding clues to its growth rate and to the "big-O" of the program. See the [aprof user manual](aprof manual)

• aprof-plot is a Java graphical user interface for visualizing reports generated by aprof. See the [aprof-plot user manual](aprof plot manual)
