[dtrace-discuss] overhead associated with timestamp?

[Neelam]

Can someone tell me about the overhead associated with the probes. Say I want to time something (e.g. duration a lock is held for) and I am using timestamp within the corresponding providers and take the difference. So this would include the time the probe takes to invoke. Is there anyway I could time the attributes more accurately?

Thanks,
Neelam
