Hello blackmore90,
The Vtune report is probably not reporting symbols properly, as the bbGetTimebaseCorrection function appears in there erroneously, although I would expect both the log function and the fft functions to appear at the top of the list.
The API should be idle between bbFetchTrace function calls yes? The bbFetchTrace function will perform the full acquisition and processing necessary to get you the sweep requested. Very little processing takes place on the receiver. The receiver sends ADC IF samples to the PC for further processing, which includes potentially hundreds/thousands of FFTs, logarithmic, and arithmetic functions on the data. The processing is also spread out on several threads to finish the processing as quickly as possible. If you are continually requesting sweeps the API will be continually processing these sweeps as quickly as your computer will allow.
If you think you are seeing behavior outside of this, we can investigate further. I don’t see anything suspect in your code snippet.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Regards,
Andrew
