RAD Telemetry

What RAD Telemetry is

RAD Telemetry is a performance profiling and visualization tool for teams investigating application hitches and other performance problems. It relates performance to program state, with graphs that artists, designers, testers, and programmers can use to connect what an application is doing with how it performs. It supports programmer-driven instrumentation and sample-based profiling, including using both together. Its visualizer shows lock contention, thread stalls, context switches, and cycles taken by other processes; full-text search and plots help examine values such as memory use over time. Telemetry is a C/C++ library using application markup. RAD says getting started often takes less than 15 minutes and about a dozen lines of code. A client-server design allows live review or saving sessions for later. Pricing is on request; licenses are generally per game and platform, with bulk, per-site, and worldwide enterprise options. Data files can reach multiple gigabytes for long sessions, depending on enabled markup.
