Abstract
Methods and systems consistent with this invention analyze the performance of a program executed in a data processing system. Such methods and systems assign a semantic to the performance of the program, and measure the level of performance of the program based on the semantic. As part of assigning a semantic, such methods and systems indicate a class of processing of which to measure performance, and may define a suctitude associated with the class. Such methods and systems define the class as a processing function that could contribute to the poor performance of the program. As part of measuring the level of performance, such methods and systems measure the suctitude of the indicated class during program execution.
