The Intel Open Source Technology Center is pleased to announce the release of version 0.1 of LatencyTOP, a tool for developers to visualize system latencies. Slow servers, Skipping audio, Jerky video --everyone knows the symptoms of latency. But to know what's really going on in the system, what's causing the latency, and how to fix it... those are difficult questions without good answers right now. LatencyTOP is a Linux tool for software developers (both kernel and userspace), aimed at identifying where system latency occurs, and what kind of operation/action is causing the latency to happen. By identifying this, developers can then change the code to avoid the worst latency hiccups.

That little laptop of mine, the 350MHz one?

My daughter wants to play games on it, but the audio has so much trouble that it's making it impossible toplay.

Kolf, in case anyone is wondering. Not exactly a CPU hog.

I am left to consider that, 10 years after purchase, that machine has finally been bloated out of usefulness. Funny, because OpenOffice and Konqueror still work perfectly well.
