[lttng-dev] Use of sub-buffers - more subbuffers but smaller, or less but bigger?

[Amit Margalit]

Hello,

I'm trying to understand the trade-offs involved in choosing sub-buffer 
number and size.

So the question is what are the benefits and the disadvantages of 
choosing, say, 32 subbuffers of 1MB versus 8 subbuffers of 4MB, or maybe 4 
subbuffers of 8MB?

Thanks,
