Profiling Perl Code

I've started using NYTProf to profile and optimise my perl code. It produces a very useful report showing how much time is spent in each subroutine and statement.

Usage:

perl -d:NYTProf script.pl
or
perl -d:NYTProf -I/path/to/Devel-NYTProf/4.06/lib/perl5 script.pl
The output of the profiler is written to ./nytprof.out.

Use the following command to create HTML reports from the profiler's results:

/path/Devel-NYTProf/4.06/bin/nytprofhtml --file nytprof.out -out ./htmlReports --delete
