Code profiler in ColdFusion Performance Monitoring Toolset

Code Profiler in ColdFusion Performance Monitoring Toolset

Run Code profiler

The Performance Monitoring Toolset monitors all transactions on a ColdFusion server and captures the response times along with other basic details of a transaction.

The procedure requires recording metrics for all components of a transaction, and thus you have the Code Profiler.

To run the code profiler, click Code Profiler on the left panel.

The tags that are not captured in profiling are: 

  1. cfif
  2. cfelse
  3. cfelseif
  4. cftry
  5. cfcatch
  6. cfset
