Java Instrumentation - any performance degradation?

Yes, any additional code slows down the execution. It strongly depends what the code does, if you just log object sizes the performance impact will be negligible (in most if not all cases). The instrumentation is done directly after the class file is loaded, so it happens only the first time, on longer running programs it shouldn't have any further impact.

If you remove the agent from you VM it surely will no longer have an influence.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
