# View Source Counting Instructions

Here is an example that shows how to count how many times each instruction is executed:

    $ (cd erts/emulator && make icount)
     MAKE   icount
    make[1]: Entering directory `/home/uabbgus/otp/erts/emulator'
      .
      .
      .
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/uabbgus/otp/erts/emulator'
    $ cat t.erl
    -module(t).
    -compile([export_all,nowarn_export_all]).

    count() ->
        erts_debug:ic(fun benchmark/0).

    benchmark() ->
        %% Run dialyzer.
        Root = code:root_dir(),
        Wc1 = filename:join(Root, "lib/{kernel,stdlib}/ebin/*.beam"),
        Wc2 = filename:join(Root, "erts/preloaded/ebin/*.beam"),
        Files = filelib:wildcard(Wc1) ++ filelib:wildcard(Wc2),
        Opts = [{analysis_type,plt_build},{files,Files},{get_warnings,true}],
        dialyzer:run(Opts).
