Re: [Valgrind-users] Visualizing memory traces using valgrind

[Andrew C. <ajc...@gm...>]

For logging, perhaps a record button that would record up to some fixed
cache size and then auto-pause the program. To continue, the cache would
need to be cleared.

Data mining the trace is a great idea, a simple use case I was considering
was to detect data stride / structure size to better layout arrays of
structures.
