PW-PROFILER(1)              General Commands Manual             PW-PROFILER(1)

NAME
       pw-profiler - The PipeWire profiler

SYNOPSIS
       pw-profiler [options]

DESCRIPTION
       Start profiling a PipeWire instance.

       If the server has the profiler module loaded, this program will connect
       to it and log the profiler data. Profiler data contains times and dura-
       tions when processing nodes and devices started and completed.

       When  this  program  is stopped, a set of gnuplot files and a script to
       generate SVG files from the .plot files  is  generated,  along  with  a
       .html file to visualize the profiling results in a browser.

       This function uses the same data used by pw-top.

OPTIONS
       -r | --remote=NAME
              The  name the remote instance to monitor. If left unspecified, a
              connection is made to the default PipeWire instance.

       -h | --help
              Show help.

       --version
              Show version information.

       -o | --output=FILE
              Profiler output name (default "profiler.log").
