Generate a performance report

Performance Advisor creates an easy-to-read report from a Streamline capture that you can use to understand how your Android application performs on a mobile device.

You can use the Arm Streamline example capture that comes with Arm Performance Studio to generate an example Performance Advisor report.

  1. Open a terminal, and navigate to the location of the imported capture.

  2. Run the streamline-cli command with the -pa option on the Streamline capture file (.apc):

        
    
            
            
    streamline-cli -pa "Android - GPU Bound Example.apc"
    
        
    

    The capture is processed, and an HTML report is generated. For now, you can ignore the warnings shown:

    Report performance_advisor-<timestamp>.html" successfully generated
    
            
        
    

    Open the report in a browser and review the summary. Image Alt Text:Screenshot of a Performance Advisor report showing device information, capture summary, average frame rate, boundedness distribution, and resource utilizationPerformance Advisor report
