Table 2 Information displayed in a node’s ToolTip
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Type | Displays the node’s method type. |
| Context | Displays the full execution context of the selected node. |
| Sorted "sorted by" type and value | Displays the field by which the tree view is sorted by and the value for the selected node and its underlying call tree. |
The table below describes the “sort by” options available for the execution tree.
Table 3 Sort options for the execution tree
| Sorted by | Description |
|---|---|
| Response Time (Avg) | Displays the average response time for each node and its underlying call path. The average response time is displayed in seconds. |
| Response Time (Sum) | Displays the total response time for each node and its underlying call path. The summed response time is displayed in hours: minutes: seconds: milliseconds. |
| Work Time (Avg) | Displays the average work time in seconds for each node. The average work time is displayed in seconds. |
| Work Time (Sum) | Displays the summed work time in seconds for each node. The summed work time is displayed in hours: minutes: seconds: milliseconds. |
| Executions | Displays the number of executions within each node. |
All of the sort options can be displayed in ascending or descending order. You can also select the maximum number of executions to display under each node, the maximum number of results to display, and whether to display the method’s long or short name.

The Highlights tab
The Highlights tab appears when any node type within the execution tree is selected, and displays a comprehensive performance overview of the selected node. The highlights tab provides information regarding performance trends for the selection’s underlying call path and displays performance findings to facilitate focused navigation to the root cause of a performance issue.
