Is it possible to have a different output format when sampling?
Yes, both pfmon-2.0 and pfmon-3.0 offer you a choice of sampling output formats. In pfmon-3.0 this is implemented by sampling modules as opposed to sampling formats. You can list the possible formats/modules using the -I option of pfmon. In addition, it is possible for you to develop your own format/module. You can use the example provided in the pfmon source tree. • Can pfmon monitor Java programs? Yes, it can. However be aware that pfmon-2.0 only monitors the initial thread which most of the time is not the most interesting thread. With pfmon-3.0 you can monitor multiple processes/threads at the same time using any of the –follow-* options. Those options are not turned on by default. • Can pfmon monitor multithreaded programs? It depends on the version. Pfmon-2.0 can only monitor the first (master) thread. But pfmon-3.0 can monitor multi-threaded programs when using the –follow-pthread option. This option is not turned on by default • Is there a workaround to monitor multithreaded
