objects created for each purepath

Question

Hi,

Is it possible to display number of objects created and memory allocated for each Purepath? Can somebody please advice me?

--Thanks.

Hi

There is no out-of-the-box feature that tells you the total number of objects allocated per PurePath. But - there are several options

For Java & .NET you can create Memory Sensor Rules for specific classes (I wouldnt recommend to do this for core classes such as Strings, ...). But - once you have a Memory Sensor Rule in place you can also opt-in to "show allocations on PurePath". that means that you get to see every single allocation of a certain class on the PurePath and with that you also have the count. If you want to learn more about how these Memory Sensors work check out the following webinar recording - dynaLearn Webinar - Memory and Thread Diagnostics - February 15, 2012 - as well as the following information in the doc: Memory Diagnostics & Selective Memory
PHP: For PHP we capture the memory footprint at the beginning and at the end of the PurePath. with that you get a good overview of how much memory is used per transaction. It doesnt give you the details though on individual instances

I hope this helps as a start
