      proc/variables: prefetch of target process memory · b839eda2
      aarzilli 提交于
      Prefetch the entire memory of structs and arrays and cache it instead
      of issuing readMemory calls only when we get down to primitive types.
      This reduces the number of system calls to ptrace that variables makes.
      
      Improves performance in general, greatly improving it in some
      particular cases (involving large structs).
      
      Benchmarks without prefetching:
      	BenchmarkArray-4         	      10	 132189944 ns/op	   0.06 MB/s
      	BenchmarkArrayPointer-4  	       5	 202538503 ns/op	   0.04 MB/s
