Hi Michael, > Can you elaborate on your comment about -O0 producing not-useful results? That's in the context of performance profiling. I have seen performance profiling that indicated that 90% of the programs time was spent in a routine that in the optimized build was much less than 1% of the time. That specific case is exemplary of non-optimized builds in general. Hence performance profiling for the non-optimized build is not interesting, since time spent fine-tuning (or re-architecting) the non-performant non-optimized code is not a useful effort. In the context of coverage profiling, -O0 should be fine. Perhaps even preferred. The rest of your message is a bit out of my knowledge, so hopefully someone else addresses your other inquiries. Sincerely, --Eljay
