NAME

       tracy-capture - A capture application to save traces produced by a tracy client to a file

SYNOPSIS

       tracy-capture -o file [-a address] [-p port] [-f] [-s seconds]

OPTIONS

       -o file
              The name of the file to write the trace to (required).

       -a address
              Specifies the IP address of the client application (uses localhost if not provided).  If no client
              is running at the given address, the server will wait until it can make a connection.

       -p port
              Network port which should be used (optional).

       -f     Force overwrite, if output file already exists.

       -s seconds
              Number of seconds to capture before automatically disconnecting (optional).

DESCRIPTION

       During the capture, the utility will display the following information:

              % ./capture -a 127.0.0.1 -o trace
              Connecting to 127.0.0.1:8086...
              Queue delay: 5 ns
              Timer resolution: 3 ns
              1.33 Mbps / 40.4% = 3.29 Mbps | Net: 64.42 MB | Mem: 283.03 MB | Time: 10.6 s

       The  Queue  delay  and  Timer resolution parameters are calibration results of timers used by the client.
       The following line is a status bar, which displays:  network  connection  speed,  connection  compression
       ratio,  and  the resulting uncompressed data rate; the total amount of data transferred over the network;
       memory usage of the capture utility; time extent of the captured data.

       You can disconnect from the client and save the captured trace by pressing Ctrl + C.
