How to use the Profiler?

+1 vote

The GDScript profiler looks like a handy feature, but I can't understand how to use it. When I run my game and I'm on the "Profiler" tab in the debugger all I see is this:

and nothing changes even if I tick the "Script Functions" button. Everything is static no matter what I do.
How do I use it?

I tested to enable the profiler on the MiniLens demo, the profiler works fine.
You appear to have a bug somewhere. Also, "Frame # 33768" looks suspicious, because 33768 - 1000 = 32768, and 32768*2 = 65536, which is equal to 2^16. Coincidence? I don't think so :p
If you get a perfect repro of the bug on a test project, you can post it on Github https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues

Yup, looks like disabling vsync makes the profiler unable to get the frames right. I get a similar result (which is not static, but broken anyways).
