Name        : latencytop
Product     : Fedora 17
Version     : 0.5
Release     : 8.fc17
URL         : http://www.latencytop.org/
Summary     : System latency monitor (with GUI)
Description :
LatencyTOP is a tool for software developers (both kernel and userspace), aimed
at identifying where in the system latency is happening, and what kind of
operation/action is causing the latency to happen so that the code can be
changed to avoid the worst latency hiccups.
This package contains a build of LatencyTOP with GUI interface. For a build
without GUI install latencytop-tui instead.

Update Information:

This latencytop update fixes a couple of bugs:
* Use of the obsolete `tracing_enabled` interface triggered warnings from the kernel. Fixed by removing the fsync view, which did not work anyway.
* Confusing error message when run unprivileged. Fixed by improving the message. Also made sure the message remains visible and is not cleared by the ncurses cleanup.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update latencytop' at the command line.
