Introduction
The Intel® Graphics Performance Analyzers (Intel® GPA) suite is a set of powerful graphics and gaming analysis tools that are designed to work the way game developers do, saving valuable optimization time by quickly providing actionable data to help developers find performance opportunities from the system level down to the individual draw call.
Intel® GPA now supports Intel® Atom™ based phones and tablets running the Google* Android* OS. This version of the toolset enables you to optimize OpenGL* ES workloads using your choice of development systems: Windows*, OS X*, or Ubuntu* OS. With this capability, as an Android* developer you can:
- get a real-time view of over two dozen critical system metrics covering the CPU, GPU, and OpenGL* ES API
- conduct a number of graphics pipeline experiments to isolate graphics bottlenecks
- when using a tablet based on an Intel Atom processor, run Intel GPA Frame Analyzer to perform detailed frame analysis and optimization
