Tracing the GPU usage

Hello,

Can give me some tips to trace the GPU usage on a solaris8 update7 box?
I try to understand why a Cadcam app is so slow on my Solaris box compared to a win$ box. I guess it comes from the poor graphic card I have but i would like to emphasize it.

My bench is 150sec long on a Solaris while 33sec long on Win$
Using vmstat and iostat I can see that there is no disk swap that could slow the app. The cpu is spent, at 95%, as user CPU. The truss -c cmd shows that the overall system time is 13sec (over 150sec) with 12 secs of ioctl!
As it's a graphic app I guess the system is wating for "GPU results". HOW can I trace it from a system point of view (I don't want to use development mathematics library to trace the process)? The only stuff I have found is fbconfig -prconf that gaves me the video memory usage... Smilie

Many thanks for your help.

NAME
wml::std::box - Easily Create Rectangular Box SYNOPSIS
#use wml::std::box <box [attributes]> ... </box> DESCRIPTION
The "<box>" container tag puts its body into a nice rectangular box which itself is build via a HTML "<table>" construct. ATTRIBUTES
"header" This attribute switches between two totally different box variants. When it is present, a headlined box is created by the use of one single table but with space GIFs. When this attribute is missing a standard box is created by the use of two nested tables but without any space GIFs. "bgcolor" This sets the background color of the box. "fgcolor" This sets the foreground (text) color of the box. "bdcolor" This sets the color for the border of the box. The effect of this attribute is the automatic generation of a nested table construct to achieve the optical effect. "bdspace" This sets the space between the border and the body of the box in pixels. Default is 4 pixel. "bdwidth" This sets the border width in pixels. Default is 1 pixel. "width" This sets the total table width in pixels. Default is no specific width for the standard box and 300 pixels for the headlined box (because the headlined variant needs to know a fixed size to create the GIFs accordingly). "summary" Add a description of this table. This attribute is recommended in HTML 4.0. EXAMPLE
<box bdcolor="#000000" bdwidth=1 bdspace=10 bgcolor="#ffffff" fgcolor="#000000"> Foo Bar Quux </box> <box header="Foo Bar Quux Header" bdcolor="#000000" bdwidth=1 bdspace=10 bgcolor="#ffffff" fgcolor="#000000"> Foo Bar Quux </box> AUTHOR
