B is designed to provide some of the same benefits of a regular profiler, but in a way that can be deployed onto one or many production servers. The B aspect lets you break up your program into a series of named "zones" based on the areas in which you expect your program will expend the most wallclock time. In the example above, we expect that most of the program time will be spent either parsing Perl files using L (which we know to be slow) or waiting for a response from our database of some kind. We also define a top zone that we expect to enter as soon as the program starts to do useful work. Each zone is defined by a L that identifies the key functions that serve as entry points for that area of the program. As your program executes, the B will watch at these zone entry points, and track the progress of your program as it moves between the different zones. The wallclock time for the execution is tallied up both inclusive and exclusive for each zone, and when the top-most zone exits the results are handed off to a handler callback so you can write the times to disk, save them to a database, or send them to a local or remote syslog. =head1 SUPPORT Bugs should be reported via the CPAN bug tracker at L For other issues, contact the author. =head1 AUTHOR Adam Kennedy Eadamk@cpan.orgE =head1 SEE ALSO L, L =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2010 Adam Kennedy.
