Hi all!

Have a look at
http://www.experimentalstuff.com/Technologies/TracingJVM/index.html
and
http://www.experimentalstuff.com/sunr/people/mario/tracing-jvm/index.html
There is a JVM by Sun Microsystems, which is under a BSD-license.

And at the introduction of the side stand:
"The Tracing JVM is a modified JavaTM Virtual Machine which can be used to 
gather data on the behavior of Java applications. The Tracing JVM is based 
on a production-quality JVM in which the interpreter and object management 
system have been modified so that it can emit data about how objects, 
stacks, classes, etc., are being used in the execution of a Java 
application. The data are recorded in trace files which characterize 
selected aspects of the execution behavior. Traces can be analyzed to learn 
about what the application is doing, used as input to simulators of new JVM 
implementations, etc."

It sounds, that this VM is a modified version of the real Sun JVM.

I think, that's interesting. :-)

@ Mono-Team: So, it is possible, that you can integrate useful code of Suns 
JVM in Mono.

@ GNU-Classpath-Team: So, there is an additional JVM, which you can use for 
Classpath.
