.TH dappprof 1m  "$Date: 2015/09/30 22:01:09 $" "USER COMMANDS"
.SH NAME
dappprof \- profile user and lib function usage. Uses DTrace.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B dappprof
[\-acehoTU] [\-u lib] { \-p PID | command }
.SH DESCRIPTION
dappprof prints details on user and library call times for processes
as a summary style aggragation. By default the user fuctions are
traced, options can be used to trace library activity. Output can
include function counts, elapsed times and on cpu times.

The elapsed times are interesting, to help identify functions
that take some time to complete (during which the process may
have slept). CPU time helps us identify syscalls that
are consuming CPU cycles to run.

Since this uses DTrace, only the root user or users with the
dtrace_kernel privilege can run this command.
