[Wala-wala] GC overhead limit exceeded when frequently invoking getCallsiteSignature

[Parjanya V. <par...@uw...>]

Hi all,

I apologize in advance if this question has been already addressed or is too naive. When using class hierarchy analysis with a large code base, I encounter the 'GC overhead limit exceeded' exception that stems from MethodReference::getCallsiteSignature method when it is invoked frequently.

The exception only occurs when analyzing a large analysis scope that consists of multiple large dex files. There is no fixed point that I could observe when this exception is triggered.

Can someone please help me out with this? Any guidance will be highly appreciated! I can provide more details on the analysis data/processing that I am attempting, if needed.

Thanks,
