Arm Performance Studio (formerly known as Arm Mobile Studio) is a performance analysis tool suite for developers to performance test their applications on devices with Mali-based GPUs. It comprises of 4 easy-to-use tools that show you how well your application performs either on off-the-shelf Android devices, or Linux targets. The tools help you to identify problems that might slow down performance, overheat the device, or drain the battery.
| Component | Functionality |
|---|---|
| Streamline | Capture a performance profile that shows all the performance counter activity from the device. |
| Performance Advisor | Generate an easy-to-read performance summary from an annotated Streamline capture, and get actionable advice about where you should optimize. |
| Frame Advisor | Capture the API calls and rendering from a problem frame and get comprehensive geometry metrics to discover what might be slowing down your application. |
| Graphics Analyzer | Analyze OpenGL ES and Vulkan API calls in your application, to identify rendering defects and investigate problem scenes. |
| Mali Offline Compiler | Analyze how efficiently your shader programs perform on a range of Mali GPUs. |
| RenderDoc for Arm GPUs | The industry-standard tool for debugging Vulkan graphics applications, including early support for Arm GPU extensions and Android features. |
Arm Performance Studio is supported on Windows, Linux, and macOS hosts. See the Install Guide for installation instructions.
