Performance Profiling with EndoScope, an Acquisitional Software Monitoring Framework
Summary: EndoScope declaratively monitors running programs acquisitionally, instrumenting only code needed to answer queries. CFG and relational optimizations minimize instrumentation and overhead, achieving 1–25% on Derby/TPC-C versus ≥30% for the fastest profiler. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
