I stumbled across the "Spin Control" app
The Dev kit comes with quite a number of extremely useful apps - and
there are even more in the CHUD tools pack for those mucking about with
I/O and highly optimised stuff. I cannot emphasise strongly how useful
Object Alloc, Spin Control, Malloc Debug and Shark can be when you have
odd problems or really want to push your app for better speed. I have
used Shark especially when looking to speed up old code by using the
vector engine and the latest incarnation (it used to be called shakera
or something) is superb - and often helped me find just the right
places to vectorise and achieve 100% performance boosts with only a few
lines of code :) In case anyone asks, this was on old c and c++ neural
network and genetic algorithm code - very cpu bound and perfect for
vectorising.
