The allocation monitor view settings dialog is accessed by bringing the allocation monitor view to front and choosing Edit->View settings from JProfiler's main menu or clicking on the corresponding  toolbar entry. The context menu also gives access to the view settings dialog.

• The view mode can be toggled with the cumulate allocations checkbox. This sets whether allocations should be cumulated to show all allocations below any method or not.

• The allocations description options control the amount of information that is presented in the description of the method call.
  • Always show fully qualified names
    If this option is not checked, class name are omitted in intra-class method calls which enhances the conciseness of the display.
  • Always show signature
    If this option is not checked, method signatures are shown only if two methods with the same name appear on the same level.

• The percentage calculation determines against what allocation numbers percentages are calculated.
  • Absolute
    Percentage values show the contribution to the total number of allocations.
  • Relative
    Percentage values show the contribution to the parent method.
  Whether the contribution is cumulated or not depends on the Cumulate allocations setting.
