  Bye,

I signed up and waded through tons of slow https js laden forms, only
to finally be presented with nothing but a self-extracting .exe file
which looks like a patch for the windows data-collector.

I do have a license key now.  Just no software :(

If anybody figure out how to get the actual download, please let me
know!

Me too (but with a not so slow connection).

At the ftp site there's also only .exe files...

I've opened up an issue at premier.intel.com because of this.

BTW.: Even if this isn't on topic for FreeBSD: AMD has a free tool
(maybe not as powerfull as vtune) for download at
http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/DevelopWithAMD/0,,30_2252_3604,00.html
unfortunately it's Windows only (and needs MSVC). But if you need a tool
which is able to show you the utilisation of the CPU pipelines and you
meet the necessary requirements, it may be of use.

Bye,
Alexander.

Let me know if you hear anything.  I'm hoping the port won't be much
worse than Iprobe. (The alpha (linux/windows/vms/unix) profiling tool
I ported to FreeBSD/alpha way back when..

Actually I'm downloading it at the moment. First I got a response it
may need upto 24h until you can download it after registration and then
a try again, it should work now.

I will open up an issue regarding the lack of open source kernel
drivers... but first I download it. Not that I don't trust Marius when
he says that the beta doesn't come with the sources, it's because I want
to say hey, I tried to port it to freebsd like I did with icc, but I
can't because of

 That would make it somewhat difficult, no?

lang/icc also does cost money, but Intel has a free for non-commercial
use license for it.

If Intel also offers vtune with such a license (I doubt it), I will have
a look at it.

Intel is also responsive to bug reports/feature requests when you
specify FreeBSD as the operating system icc runs on, so I'm sure we can
push vtune into a state where we can use it on FreeBSD.

Alexander.

I don't think so.  VTUNE is plenty worth it.

  I don't think so.  VTUNE is plenty worth it.

Intel usually has 30 day free eval licenses, so the price
might not matter all *that* much.

The fact that it won't be available for a month might hinder the
porting effort.  It may use the same driver as the current remote
support for linux...
