Video Lesson 6.1 : SAP Runtime Analysis Tool

In this lesson you will learn about the basic functions and the purpose of the program analysis tool Runtime Analysis. This is a brief introduction of the tool.

• The runtime analysis tool makes it possible to take detailed measurements of the runtime requirements of your programs.
• You can use it to localize low performance source code blocks in your programs and tune them if necessary.
• However, always note that the measurement results depend on the current system and network load as well as the current table buffer and dataset.
• You can measure not only programs, but also transactions and function modules with regard to their runtime.
• Hint: It is advisable to create your own measurement variant with the setting “Aggregation: None” and to use this for the measurement since a detailed analysis of the measurement results is only possible with this.
• Execute is used to start the runtime analysis.
• The generated measurement results are stored in a measurement-related file.
