  • deterministic and records all events
  • but no advantage over just sampling in the current examples
  • would be nice to add examples / scenarios where it provides something you can't get with sampling
  • (thanks for the suggestion from the feedback forms)

Research direction

Review the current examples in the cpp-performance-profiling course and compare what simulation records with what sampling exposes. Add examples or scenarios where simulation provides information unavailable from sampling; done means the examples clearly demonstrate that advantage.
