In the INSTRUCTION domain, to determine which vector instructions
are used most by your program, enter the following command line:
PCAC> PLOT/VCOUNTERS INSTRUCTION BY VOPCODE
This command causes the report view to be based on the
disassembled opcode for each vector instruction in the entire
application that is sampled. The number of times a vector
instruction is used lets you see if your application is spending
a lot of time performing certain operations. For example, if you
see that the SYNC vector instruction is executed more than any
other vector instruction, you can infer that the scalar processor
is spending too much idle time waiting for the vector processor
to finish an operation.
