Abstract
In this paper we present a platform independent analysis of
the dynamic profiles of Java programs when executing on
the Java Virtual Machine. The Java programs selected are
taken from the Java Grande Forum benchmark suite, and
five different Java-to-bytecode compilers are analysed. The
results presented describe the dynamic instruction usage frequencies,
as well as the sizes of the local variable, parameter
and operand stacks during execution on the JVM.
These results, presenting a picture of the actual (rather than
presumed) behaviour of the JVM, have implications both for
the coverage aspects of the Java Grande benchmark suites,
for the performance of the Java-to-bytecode compilers, and
for the design of the JVM.
