Hi, is there a way to see how much time my code is taking to run? I don't mean elapsed time but the rate it is working. For example, I have three topics being published and one subscriber and I want to know how the rate at which they are being published.
You can use rqt_graph to find out the frequency at which messages are being published to your topics. First enable statistics with the following command:
rosparam set enable_statistics true
Then execute rqt_graph as described here.
I'm not quite sure what time you're trying to measure when you say "how much time it takes for the topics to be published" if you don't mean elapsed time. can you clarify this.
While your code is running open a new terminal and enter the first command I described. Then on the next line start rqt_graph. This should show a graph of all the nodes, which topics they're publishing and the frequency at which they're being published.
Just run all your topics and then execute rostopic hz /topic_name.
You can also have multiple topics at the same time :
rostopic hz /topic_0 /topic_1 /topic_2
