| ## Name
 | |
| 
 | |
| Profiler - Serenity process profiler
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Synopsis
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```**sh
 | |
| $ Profiler [--pid PID] [perfcore-file]
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Description
 | |
| 
 | |
| Profiler facilitates process performance profiling and provides a GUI offering
 | |
| visual graph and tree representations to easily navigate generated profiling
 | |
| information.
 | |
| 
 | |
| If no arguments are provided, a window containing a list of running processes
 | |
| is presented, allowing a process to be selected for profiling.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Profiling information is written to `perfcore.<pid>` in the working directory
 | |
| and opened immediately for browsing following termination of profiling.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Profiler can also load performance information from previously created
 | |
| `perfcore` files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Options
 | |
| 
 | |
| * `-p PID`, `--pid PID`: PID to profile
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Arguments
 | |
| 
 | |
| * `perfcore-file`: Path of perfcore file to load
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Examples
 | |
| 
 | |
| Profile running Shell process:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| $ Profiler -p $(pidof Shell)
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Open a previously created perfcore file for browsing:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| $ Profiler perfcore.123
 | |
| ```
