That's by design, though it's not optimal. I abort optimization if a
segment is already in progress , to prevent stepping on tp 's toes. Also,
the optimization doesn't run on the last segment in the queue, because that
segment has the potential to be shortened by a future blend arc.

Both of these problems are fixable. I was looking into how to detect "end
if file" in the code, and it seems that the interp_waiting state
corresponds to the interpreter running out of valid moves (rather than just
having a full queue). If this is the case, then a simple check should be
enough to flag the last move. Similarly, I could make blend arc creation
work on the unchanged portion of a segment in progress.

Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business. Most IT 
organizations don't have a clear picture of how application performance 
affects their revenue. With AppDynamics, you get 100% visibility into your 
Java,.NET, & PHP application. Start your 15-day FREE TRIAL of AppDynamics Pro!
