In its current form (after implementing marker methods) a problem has surfaced when profiling part of application defined by root methods. Marker methods are instrumented and measured and results are visible to the user in live results as well as a part of snapshot. Generally, the user shouldn't be aware of the fact that marker methods were executed - they should be used only for categorization and overview. So they must be effectively removed from live results and snapshot. This requires partial rewrite of the CallGraphBuilder infrastructure - might be combined with the effort to rewrite profiling points. Also, it must be considered, how to present results of profiling part of application with marker methods applied - should the overview be given on the whole application or should be the overview calculated only in regard to the root methods specified? (eg. how big portion of time spent in a method belongs to a specific category etc.)
Not applicable for the new profiler.
