4NAME
5----
6perf-diff - Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display the profile
7
8SYNOPSIS
9--------
10[verse]
11'perf diff' [oldfile] [newfile]
12
13DESCRIPTION
14-----------
15This command displays the performance difference among two perf.data files
16captured via perf record.
17
18If no parameters are passed it will assume perf.data.old and perf.data.
19
20OPTIONS
21-------
22-p::
23--percentage::
24 Show percentages instead of raw counters
25-v::
26--verbose::
27 Be verbose, for instance, show the raw counters in addition to the
28 diff.
