I was able to get the traces from a real Kindle Fire device, and also get benchmarks. I installed a Chromium shell, and ran the commands, that are an equivalent of
adb shell am broadcast -a org.chromium.chrome.testshell.GPU_PROFILER_START. This was using a Chrome shell, and I was wondering what the equivalent of it would be in case of Cordova Android apps. Would the name be any different? -----Original Message----- From: Archana Naik [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2014 8:30 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: GPU Profile tracing in Cordova Apps Hi, Parashuram Which device did you try to run your profiling on? Difference between Android chromium and Amazon Chromium could be underneath chromium version. KK based android is based on v30. Amazon started with v25 and is now upto v34 on some devices. Also, amazon' s port has some of the HTML5 features like WebGL enabled and many more optimizations done for Fire OS based devices. Let me know if you have any specific questions?
