Towards Solving the Challenge of Minimal Overhead Monitoring
David Georg Reichelt, Stefan Kühne, Wilhelm Hasselbring · 2023
The examination of performance changes or the performance behavior of a software requires the measurement of the performance. This is done via probes, i.e., pieces of code which obtain and process measurement data, and which are inserted into the examined application. The execution of those probes in a singular method creates overhead, which deteriorates performance measurements of calling methods and slows down the measurement process. Therefore, an important challenge for performance measurement is the reduction of the measurement overhead.
