XINBlockTimer 0.1.0

Maintained by Unclaimed.

You want to add pod 'XINBlockTimer', '~> 0.1' similar to the following to your Podfile:

target 'MyApp' do
  pod 'XINBlockTimer', '~> 0.1'
end

Then run a pod install inside your terminal, or from CocoaPods.app.

Alternatively to give it a test run, run the command:

pod try XINBlockTimer

Time blocks of code to identify performance bottlenecks.

Usage

Wrap the code you want to time in +[XINBlockTimer timeBlock:].

#import "XINBlockTimer.h"

[XINBlockTimer timeBlock:^{

    // For example: time creating an attributed string with HTML //
    NSString *html = @"<style>p {font: 12px HelveticaNeue; text-align: center;}</style><p>This is some <b>bold</b> text.</p>";

    NSAttributedString *text = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithData:[html dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]
                                                                options:@{NSDocumentTypeDocumentAttribute: NSHTMLTextDocumentType,
                                                                          NSCharacterEncodingDocumentAttribute: @(NSUTF8StringEncoding)}
                                                                          documentAttributes:nil
                                                                          error:nil];

    label2.attributedText = text;

} withName:@"attributed string from HTML"];

Output via NSLog:

attributed string from HTML: 0.174494 sec

If you track the returned NSTimeInterval, you can pass them to a reporting method that summarizes your findings.


NSTimeInterval t1 = [XINBlockTimer timeBlock:^{ ... }];
NSTimeInterval t2 = [XINBlockTimer timeBlock:^{ ... }];

[XINBlockTimer compareTimeInterval:t1 withTimeInterval:t2];

Sample Output:

First interval is 100.520548x faster
Difference between intervals is insignificant: 0.000002
