Abstract
The discussion relates to automatically providing information about what code sequences contribute to a length of time a program takes to execute. One example can collect context switch and ready thread event tracing data from a program over a period of interest and identify time blocks of program threads from the period of interest. The example can distinguish individual time blocks that contribute to execution time for the period of interest from other individual time blocks that do not contribute to the execution time.
