Hi, As you may know, last semester we worked on an university course project. The main objective was to learn about VMs, and in particular about dynamic binary translation. We chose to implement a few optimizations in Valgrind's VEX engine. We have published a technical report that describes the optimizations that we have implemented and their results. It can be found at: http://www.inesc-id.pt/ficheiros/publicacoes/4867.pdf Attached you can find the final version of our patches (all described in the document mentioned above), as well as the raw test results. We will provide support and answer any question related with our patches. While this e-mail ends officially our work on Valgrind, we hope to contribute more patches for performance improvement in the future. Finally we would like to thank everybody that made this work possible. A detailed acknowledgements section is also included in the document mentioned above. Regards, Nuno, Felipe & Renato |
