Typeperf.exe: Performance Data in the Command Window | Previous

TypePerf Output


In response to a valid query, TypePerf writes data to the command prompt window in a table comprised of rows of comma-separated, variable-length strings in the following format:

"Date and time of update", "Counter (1) data",  "Counter (2) data",  ...

Each row of the table represents a data sample taken as close as possible to the requested interval. The following example shows the first few rows of TypePerf's response to a query:

Query

typeperf 1 "\Processor(0)\% Processor Time" "\Memory\Page faults/sec"
