To optimize, take measurements from your application and determine the problem areas.
You can take measurements in the following ways:
Use the Mali instrumented drivers to take readings from counters and record data about the application while it is running. This data is saved to files you can view later.
Use a selection of techniques and tools to gather performance information.
For more information, see Taking measurements with the instrumented drivers and see Locating bottlenecks with other tools.
You must switch VSYNC off when optimizing and especially when you are taking measurements. See Use VSYNC.
