[hoda_dawy]

Kindly please if you could help me in this issue?

I have a code which conatins functions that take nano-seconds, I want to know if the vtune can profile it or not?

what is the resolution of vtune?

Thanks a lot,
Hoda

You have options to increase the sampling rate (probably with some influence on performance). My experience may not be relevant, but I suspect you will need run times of at least 10 seconds with each function you want to profile totalling at least 5%, to get useful results.

Hello ,

Till I know you can get to a minimum of 1ms sample rate. Also, it is suggested to run your critical function in a loop to get a larger execution time and then do sampling.
