Product     : Fedora Core 6
Name        : oprofile
Version     : 0.9.2
Release     : 3.fc6
Summary     : System wide profiler
Description :
oprofile is a profiling system for systems running Linux 2.2/2.4.
Profiling runs transparently during the background, and profile data
can be collected at any time. oprofile makes use of the hardware performance
counters provided on Intel P6, and AMD Athlon family processors, and can use
the RTC for profiling on other x86 processor types.

See the HTML documentation for further details.

Provides Intel Core 2 support that was missing from OProfile
0.9.1 and corrects a number of event names for AMD64 processors.
