Hi All,

TPTP is wonderful! but I'm in confusion, how will i detect memory leak in
our application with TPTP memory profiling, i can not take heap snapshot and
compare, I mean there is no moderately productive way of doing it, of course
i can do the comparision between two session, that's labourious, i'm in huge
application on appserver.

Is there anything i'm missing in TPTP.
Thanks

I know that there were talks of introducing a comparison engine in EMF.
This would of course greatly help us in providing a comparison engine for
profiling sessions. I'm not sure if the engine ever got committed to EMF.
This is a common feature that is often expected in profiling tools.
I recommend opening a feature with priority 1. We should essentially allow
the user to select two agents and use the context menu to select Compare
With >> Each Other. The difference between the two should then be
displayed.

Currently, the comparison has to be done manually. You have to start your
profiling session > take a heap snap shot > detach your agent > re-attach >
and take another heap snap shot. You would then have to do the comparison
between the two agents manually.
