Profiling DSP/BIOS Code Execution Time
Developing a DSP/BIOS Program 3-9
Calls to LOG_printf are efficient because the string formatting is
performed on the host PC rather than on the target DSP. LOG_printf
takes about 36 instruction cycles compared to about 1700 for puts()
measured at the end of Chapter 2. You can leave calls to LOG_printf in
your code for system status monitoring with very little impact on code
execution.
