To be more explicit, my concerns are about the effect of function name entry/return probes vs static probes on elapsed time, as measured by timestamp.
I'm viewing all my timings as a percentage of total elapsed time and I'm wondering if there's less overhead in using static probes in this context. Thanks, Joel On Sep 9, 2009, at 10:20 PM, Chad Mynhier wrote:
The expense of the trap into the kernel is going to overwhelm any subtleties in handling between the two different types of probes.
