<p>Select the Functions tab to display the Function Load. The function load graph and related table show information about functions that were active during the selected time period. In Function mode, the graph and information views show the CPU load separated at a function level, independent of the thread that has been executing it. Figure 1 shows an example of the Function tab selected and Function load displayed.</p>
