- Due to language constructs or compiler optimizations, it may be possible for multiple functions to overlap (that is, share part of the same function body) or for a single function to have multiple entry points
- In practice, it is impossible to determine the difference between multiple overlapping functions and a single function with multiple entry points
- By default, omnitrace avoids instrumenting overlapping functions
## Additional Notes
The ["Data granularity in profiler types"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profiling_(computer_programming)#Data_granularity_in_profiler_types) section of
the Wikipedia ["Profiling (computer programming)"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profiling_(computer_programming)) page may be a useful reference in understanding
the different profiling modes and their trade-offs.
