Description

This option controls which features are value profiled.

If this option is specified with option -prof-gen (Linux* and Mac OS* X) or /Qprof-gen (Windows*), it turns off instrumentation of operations of the specified type. This also prevents feedback of values for the operations.

If this option is specified with option -prof-use (Linux and Mac OS X) or /Qprof-use (Windows), it turns off feedback of values collected of the specified type.

If you specify -opt-report (Linux and Mac OS X) or /Qopt-report (Windows) level 2 or higher, the value profiling specialization information will be reported within the PGO optimization report.
