Pro"lingLimitations today with Flash Player and AIR

Pro"lingLimitations today with Flash Player and AIR

VM only

Today, using the pro"ler in Flash Builder only exposes VM related information.

Debugger builds only

The existing Flash Builder pro"ler relies on debugger builds (performing slower than release builds).

Not stable

Complex content can also crash your pro"ling

No in-context testing

Being able to use release builds allows easy in-context testing.

No visualization

There is no existing tool allowing developers to easily spot issues in their content.

No mobile pro!ling

There is no out of the box solution to pro"le mobile content (AIR) today.

Adobe ScoutRevolutionize the way you pro"le Flash content across desktop and mobile devices.

Scout exposes granular information never exposed before to Flash developers.

No code instrumentation needed.

Works with the release Flash Player and AIR runtime.

Con"gure with Companion App

(App Store/Google Play)

Test Pro"le

Seamless pro!ling

Great! How do I get this?

What about standards?
