I never measured it. I would estimate that any difference one way or
another is in the noise. The point of seccomp is to run a process that
almost never makes any system calls. The only effects of utrace for that
use are on the system call path itself, and the essential effects there
(i.e. taking the tracing path vs the hot path) are the same as what the old
seccomp implementation does.

If you have some example uses of seccomp or something that can serve as a
benchmark for it, I would be glad to measure the difference.


Thanks,
Roland
