Analyse and measure the memory efficiency of Microkit #51

Open Ivan-Velickovic opened 9 months ago

Ivan-Velickovic commented 9 months ago

One of the goals of Microkit is to have minimal overhead with regards to memory usage. A number of design decisions have been made in order to make this possible. However, what we are missing is a systematic way of measuring the memory usage of a system, where the overheads are, and so on. The report created by the Microkit tool helps with this, but is not enough.

The goal would to have automated tests that run on each commit to Microkit that analyse and report regressions of memory efficiency.
