Andres>The overhead required for it (in cycles, in higher memory usage due to additional bookeeping
Does that mean the memory contexts are unparseable? (there's not enough information to enumerate contents) What if memory dump is produced by walking the C structures? For instance, I assume statament cache is stored in some sort of a hash table, so there should be a way to enumerate it in a programmatic way. Of course it would take time, however I do not think it creates cpu/memory overheads. The overhead is to maintain "walker" code. Vladimir
