Hi All, I am trying to see how much an overhead DynInst would typically impose. To test it myself I ran Dyninst instrumented h264 with spec 2006 reference inputs [1] (compiled with gcc). I was using the CodeCoverage tool [2] for instrumentation. But it's taking way too higher time than the unprofiled run. (More than a 50x slow down) although the DynInst paper [3] suggest an overhead less than 1.5x for basic block count. Not sure if I am missing something here. Any ideas on this?
