Abstract:
A method of runtime analysis of a computer program can include detecting allocations of virtual memory regions during runtime of the computer program. An entry can be created in a list of existing virtual memory regions for each allocation of a virtual memory region during runtime. The list can be updated, during runtime, according to usage of the virtual memory regions. Virtual memory regions allocated to, but not used by, the computer program can be indicated according to the list.
