A unified, low-overhead framework to support continuous profiling and optimization

چکیده
We propose a unified, low-overhead framework (ULF) to support continuous system profiling and optimization based on a specifically designed embedded board. Instead of building a new profiling tool from scratch, ULF provides a unified interface to integrate various existing profiling tools and optimizers, and helps to easily build future tools. ULF uses an embedded processor to offload tasks of post-processing profiling data, which reduces system overhead caused by profiling tools and makes ULF especially suitable for continuous profiling on production systems. By processing the profiling data in parallel and providing feedback promptly, ULF supports on-line optimization. Our case study on I/O profiling demonstrated that ULFenhanced profiling tool dramatically reduces overhead making continuous profiling on production systems feasible.

Context: Software development tools that interact with running programs such as debuggers, profilers, and dynamic analysis frameworks are presumed to demand difficult tradeoffs among implementation complexity (cost), functionality, usability, and performance. Among the many consequences, tools are often delivered late (if ever), have limited functionality, require non-standard configurations, a...
متن کاملBursty Tracing: A Framework for Low-Overhead Temporal Profiling
With processor speed increasing much more rapidly than memory access speed, memory system optimizations have the potential to significantly improve program performance. Unfortunately, cache-level optimizations often require detailed temporal information about a program’s references to be effective. Traditional techniques for obtaining this information are too expensive to be practical in an on-...
