[Swift-user] Timing Swift runs

Hi Carsen,

The "info" files that are produced by each application invocation include (I think) the run time stats. These are returned in a ".d" directory for successful app invocations when you specify this option in the swift.properties file (-config option):

wrapperlog.always.transfer=false

In addition you can glean a lot of info about run times from the Swift .log file.
There are tools to plot information from the log, but Im not sure how up to date these are in the 0.93 and trunk releases. Can anyone with log plotting/analysis expertise provide more info?

Thanks,

- Mike
