Abstract
A system and method for concurrently recording and displaying of system performance data. System statistical data which is useful in determining the overall performance of a data processing system is captured, displayed, and recorded for subsequent playback. Based on the modular design, real time data can be concurrently captured, displayed and recorded. Attributes of the data can also be modified concurrently with the capture and display of data. Previously recorded data can also be displayed while concurrently capturing and recording other/additional data. A user interface is provided to conveniently control the concurrent operations. The data being displayed can be manipulated by a user to resize, move and scroll data being displayed without disturbing the underlying capture and recording of data. When the user interactions terminate, the display screen reflects the changes made, without loss of data. Multiple categories of process data can be viewed on a single timeline graph.
