Description:

Ziga Mahkovec's bootchart (See bootchart.org) is an excellent piece of work but the logging daemon is a noticeable overhead when run on resource constrained devices such as the neo1973.

For example you might see somthing like this using bootchart:

For a more detailed description of the problems with bootchartd on embedded devices please see http://elinux.org/Bootchart.

So this is an implementation of bootchartd in C that is hopfully a bit more efficient at collecting samples during boot, but remains fully compatible with bootchartd's log format so that we can re-use their graph rendering code.

Requirements:

• Linux
• Glibc
• bootchart.jar from bootchart.org (For rendering the charts)
