Abstract: A method of probing a computer system includes steps of compiling a script that includes a call to a first function with first parameters, to generate executable code that includes a call to a second function with second parameters, wherein the second function and the second parameters are specified as values of the first parameters of the first function in the call to the first function, injecting the executable code into an executing module of the computer system, and as the executing module is running, executing the executable code to call the second function.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a technique for reducing cache misses to a cache of a computer system. The technique includes deallocating memory pages of the cache from one process and allocating those memory pages to another process based on cache misses of each process during a given time period. Repeating the technique leads the total number of cache misses to the cache to gradually decrease to an optimum or near optimum level. The repetition of the technique leads to a dynamic and flexible apportionment of cache memory pages to processes running within the computer system.
