Frame Advisor 2026.1 introduces a major architectural upgrade to its Vulkan capture pipeline, migrating to GFXReconstruct, an open-source Vulkan capture technology from LunarG. This change improves capture reliability, correctness, and scalability for complex Vulkan workloads involving advanced synchronization, multi-threaded command submission, and intricate render pass structures. The migration aligns Frame Advisor with industry-standard tooling and lays the groundwork for future capabilities. Frame Advisor is part of Arm Performance Studio, a free suite of profiling tools for Arm CPUs and GPUs.
