Intel Performance Counter Monitor (PCM) is an API and a set of tools for monitoring performance and energy metrics of Intel Core, Xeon, Atom, and Xeon Phi processors. It works on Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, DragonFlyBSD, and ChromeOS.

Use cases

  • monitor cpu performance counters on intel processors
  • measure energy and power consumption of a xeon server
  • profile core utilization and memory bandwidth
  • analyze performance metrics of intel cpus
  • track per-core frequency and thermal metrics
  • monitor cache misses and instructions per cycle

When to choose

  • you need low-level hardware performance counters on Intel CPUs
  • you want CPU energy and power metrics on Linux, Windows, or FreeBSD
  • you need a C++ API plus CLI tools for processor monitoring

When to avoid

  • you need performance monitoring on AMD or ARM processors
  • you only need high-level application profiling rather than hardware counters
  • you lack kernel driver or MSR access on your system
