Use the Profile Buffer Allocations window to identify and analyze buffer allocations in a LabVIEW application. Select Tools»Profile»Profile Buffer Allocations to display this window.

This window includes the following components:

Option Description
Application Instances

Filters application instances that contain buffer allocations. By default, the Profile Buffer Allocations window shows VIs from all the application instances that allocate large buffers during the profiling session.
Maximum buffers to display

Specifies the maximum number of buffer allocations to display in Profile Data.
Size unit

Specifies the unit of size (bytes, kilobytes, or megabytes) LabVIEW uses to display the results in Profile Data.
Profile Data

Displays a list of buffer allocations that LabVIEW identifies during the profiling session. Click the column header to sort data by column.

Time vs Memory Graph

Plots the size of a buffer allocation over time.
Threshold

Specifies the minimum size of buffer allocations to record. The Profile Data table only displays buffer allocations larger than Threshold.
Start/Stop

Starts or stops the profiling session.
Note (Real-Time Module) The LabVIEW Real-Time Module currently does not support the Profile Buffer Allocations window on RT targets.
