Description iformanek 2005-10-11 13:36:46 UTC

The Entire Application profiling does instrument simple methods that only 
access a field (getters/setters). The results can be negatively affected by 
this, if the simple methods are called very frequently.

The default should change not to include getters/setters and/or possibly not 
take timestamps with simple methods to lower the overhead proportions.

Fixed in M10

Comment 2 ehucka 2005-10-20 14:45:45 UTC

Is it possible to not instrument methods like:
JComponent.getWidth() {super.getWidth();} and the super defines getWidth()
{return width;} ?
It is getter but it is always instrumented.

Comment 3 iformanek 2005-10-20 17:40:19 UTC

Yes, I am thinking along the same lines to extend the instrumentation exclusion 
to a more broadly defined "simple" methods, perhaps with user-customizable 
level of complexity.

Currently this is not possible to do easily though, so not for 1.0

Verification of old issues.

Reverting to original Target Milestone value changed by mistake. Sorry for
inconvenience.
