Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Profiled dumpcap

Hi,

Yes I just started to look at this myself and was surprised to see g_log() one should have expected that if no log handler was connected there be no cost of the operation…

Regards

Anders

I assume that there was no other output (no logging or anything)? On my reading of the dump, most of the time is spent manipulating strings due to logging from the g_log function. The main caller seems to be capture_loop_write_packet_cb, so removing the logging call at dumpcap.c:4051 might be worth trying.
