[dtrace-discuss] libdtrace and xcalls

Hi all

I've got an app that periodically runs dtrace scripts through libdtrace 
and am seeing a good amount of xcalls from that.

I understand why dtrace uses xcalls, so this is an expected behavior to 
a certain extent. But because my app repeats the scripts on an interval 
basis, the amount of xcalls is higher than I'd like it to be.

Is there anything I can do to reduce that ?

thanks
Rafael
