Hi,

  I am using the Intel INDE Tools to check the CPU Usage of my app in Android. I have been using the Linux "top" command traditionally. There is some discrepancy between what top reports and what the Intel tool reports.

Could you tell me if the Intel tool also use the same method for measuring CPU Usage as top?

 

Thanks

Hello,

The "CPU n Load" metrics should report the same values as top does. You may see minor difference between the GPA metrics and the top utility because of different sampling rates.  If difference is not minor this could be potential issue. Could you provide more information? What device do you use? What's your android version?
