NVIDIA PerfHUD ES
PerfHUD ES provides in-depth analysis of OpenGL ES applications on Tegra based devices. In order to target optimizations where they are most needed, developers are given access to GPU performance and bottleneck information. The debugging capabilities provide insight into the state of the OpenGL ES pipeline, related textures and shaders, and all rendering states to help find the causes for improper setup and rendering anomalies.
Download the latest version of NVIDIA PerfHUD ES for Android in CodeWorks for Android. PerfHUD ES is offered free of charge, but requires NVIDIA Registered Developer Program membership.
Standalone PerfHUD ES downloads are also available at NVIDIA GameWorks™ Download Center
