I have a program which when runs faults excessively. I wanted to try and pinpoint where in the program the faulting was occuring. Is there a system call I can make from within the program which will tell me how many pagefaults I have taken (similar to setitimer and getitimer for CPU time)? Karen

Hi, Karen, just passing through and thought I would mention that atom
can make a pagefault profile, at least down to the routine level. Take
a look at "man hiprof" in particular - the pagefault incantation goes
somewhere in a -toolargs clause, I think.
Cheers,
Chuck
