[wawrzon]

back to topic please. this is supposed to be technical discussion.

I seem to remember some _old_tool that counted OS calls of your choice.
(When I say old I am thinking Fred Fish age.)

wait a minute. couldnt you come up with what it was? there is tremendous overhead on some aros68k operations as i see on a slow system and it would be great to identify most frequently called functions while it happens without doing profiling job, which im not able to.

If you have a function that is called 1000 times which takes 10ms or a function that is called 1 time which takes 100s then it won't help.

yes i know, and especially being not a programmer i dont expect a lot, though being able to see what happens while stall at least may suggest something. but lets not derail the thread.

LibraryTimer perhaps?
