Abstract

In general, this disclosure relates to techniques for using graphics instructions and state information received from a graphics device to visually create a graphics image. Performance analysis may also be conducted to identify potential bottlenecks during instruction execution on the graphics device. One example device includes a display device and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to receive a plurality of graphics instructions from an external graphics device, wherein the graphics instructions are executed by the external graphics device to display a graphics image, and to receive state information from the external graphics device, wherein the state information is associated with execution of the graphics instructions on the external graphics device. The one or more processors are further configured to display, on the display device, a representation of the graphics image according to the graphics instructions and the state information.
