> Here is another, hopefully, closer to the final iteration of NMT benchmarking mechanism.

> To use, you first need to record the pattern of operations, ex:
>
> `./build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/xcode/build/jdk/bin/java -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:NMTRecordMemoryAllocations=0x7FFFFFFF -jar build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/images/jdk/demo/jfc/J2Ddemo/J2Ddemo.jar`
>
> This will run the target app, and log all the allocations in chronological order. This will produce a few files:
> - hs_nmt_pid22770_allocs_record.log (is the chronological record of the the desired operations)
> - hs_nmt_pid22770_info_record.log (is the record of default NMT memory overhead and the NMT state)
> - hs_nmt_pid22770_threads_record.log (is the record of thread names that can be retrieved later when processing)
>
> Now you can use those recording to actually benchmark your proposed changes, ex:
>
> `./build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/xcode/build/jdk/bin/java -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:NMTBenchmarkRecordedPID=22770 -XX:NMTBenchmarkRecordedLoops=10`
>
> Which will produce yet another file:
>
> - hs_nmt_pid23527_benchmark.log
>
> that contains the details of the session, which can be further processed and analyzed by a tool, such as the one in jdk/src/utils/nmt, however, if you are looking just for one performance number look for `time:2744190[ns] [samples:115263]` in the output.
>
> The total time for this particular run is 2,744,190 nanosecond or ~2.7 seconds, which you can use to compare `before` and `after` your change.
