Welcome to the Geekbench Mac Benchmark Chart. The data on this chart is calculated from Geekbench 5 results users have uploaded to the Geekbench Browser.To make sure the results accurately reflect the average performance of each Mac, the chart only includes Macs with at least five unique results in the Geekbench Browser. I'm looking to install perf which is a kernel profiling tool for Linux. Basically I'm trying to trace all page faults, so I run equivalent of: sudo perf record -e page-faults -ag Is it possible to install/use above tool on Mac? If not, what's the equivalent tool to achieve similar results (tracing all page faults with stack traces).
I need the “perf” utility to monitor the program on my Mac. I know linux comes with it, but is it available on Mac?
I am working on a OSX 10.9 Mavericks and tried “port search” for perf or linux-tools, but I couldn’t get any results.
How to solve this problem?
Solution no. 1:
As @Sami Laine said in his comment, the Linux perf tool is dependent on Linux specific code. It relies on the perf_event_open system call which is not standardized.
Note: Maybe you could search how MacOSX users are using recent hardware performance counters.
Solution no. 2:
On MacOS you can use the “Instruments” application to profile your code. I like to use the “Time Profiler” which will show you how much time your application is its various parts during execution. I haven’t used perf myself, but from talks/videos that I’ve seen this seems to be the most common use.
To use the “Time Profiler”:
- Run Instruments, select Time Profiler
- At the top left, select your target (executable)
- Hit the Record button on the top left and let it run for a little
while. - Pause or Stop the execution and drill down on your calls in the main
window.
Hope this helps.
Solution no. 3:
On OSX you can use sample together with filtercalltree.

Close unresponsive apps and processes
When your system is acting sluggish or simply not responding, an app or process may be the source of the problem. You can use Activity Monitor to locate the troublesome app or process and force it to quit.
