ABSTRACT:
A system and method for dynamically and persistently tracking incremental profiling data in a process cloning application environment is presented. A master runtime system process is executed. A memory space of the master runtime system process is cloned as a child runtime system process responsive to a process request. The child runtime system process is executed. The execution of the child runtime system process is profiled by collecting profiling data incrementally. The child runtime system process profiles are fed back to the master runtime system process to benefit subsequent cloned child runtime system processes. In a further embodiment, the child runtime system process profiles are maintained in a persistent storage for use by the master runtime system process upon the next start up.
