PetscLogDefaultBegin#

Turns on logging (profiling) of PETSc code using the default log handler (profiler). This logs time, flop rates, and object creation and should not slow programs down too much.

Synopsis#

#include "petscsys.h"   
PetscErrorCode PetscLogDefaultBegin(void)

Logically Collective on PETSC_COMM_WORLD

Options Database Key#

-log_view [viewertype:filename:viewerformat] - Prints summary of flop and timing (profiling) information to the screen (for PETSc configured with --with-log=1 (which is the default)). This option must be provided before PetscInitialize().

Example Usage#

      PetscInitialize(...);
      PetscLogDefaultBegin();
       ... code ...
      PetscLogView(viewer); or PetscLogDump();
      PetscFinalize();

Notes#

PetscLogView() or PetscLogDump() actually cause the printing of the logging information.

This routine may be called more than once.

To provide the -log_view option in your source code you must call PetscCall(PetscOptionsSetValue(NULL, “-log_view”, NULL)); before you call PetscInitialize()
