Call counts are always recorded precisely, however.
Only programs that call exit() (see exit(2)) or return from main cause a profile file to be produced,
unless a final call to monitor() is explicitly coded.
The use of the cc -p option to invoke profiling imposes a limit of 600 functions that can have call
counters established during program execution. For more counters, call monitor() directly. If this
limit is exceeded, other data is overwritten and the mon.out file is corrupted. The number of call
counters used is reported automatically by the prof command whenever the number exceeds 5/6 of the
maximum.
FILES
mon.out for profile
a.out for namelist
