Starting a server in profiling mode

If you want to profile your projects while a server runs, you can start a server in profiling mode. When you profile an application, data related to the program's runtime behavior is collected and presented in both graphical and tabular views. Profiling enables you to see which operations take the most time and helps you to find and solve memory leaks. For more information, refer to the Monitoring and profiling applications documentation.

Once you have started the server in profiling mode you can run the projects that are associated with its configuration. You can stop and restart the server at any time. The status of the server is displayed in the Status column of the Servers view.

Prerequisites:

1. Create a server.

2. Add a project to a server.

To start the server in profiling mode:

1. In the Servers view (

   Window > Show View > Other > Server > Servers), right-click the server you want to start in profiling mode.

2. Select

   Profile. In the Status column of the Servers view, the status of the server changes to Profiling.

3. You can also start the server in profiling mode by selecting the server you want to profile, then clicking on the

   Start the server in profiling mode icon on the toolbar of the Servers view.
