Hi Julien,

How much of the SystemTap overhead is due to the printf() statement in the probe? What is the run time for the following:

probe process("./.libs/tracepoint_benchmark").mark("single_trace") {}


Is the code for the benchmarks available, so we can take a look at reducing the overhead of SystemTap?

-Will
