Call Stack - Performance Analysis

Performance Analysis

Taking random-time samples of the call stack can be very useful in optimizing performance of programs. The reason is if a subroutine call instruction appears on the call stack for a certain fraction of execution time, its possible removal would save that much time. See Performance analysis and Deep sampling.

Famous quotes containing the words performance and/or analysis:

    To vote is like the payment of a debt—a duty never to be neglected, if its performance is possible.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    A commodity appears at first sight an extremely obvious, trivial thing. But its analysis brings out that it is a very strange thing, abounding in metaphysical subtleties and theological niceties.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)
