Abstract

One or more embodiments may provide a method for performing a replay. The method includes initiating execution of a program, the program having a plurality of sets of instructions, and each set of instructions has a number of chunks of instructions. The method also includes intercepting, by a virtual machine unit executing on a processor, an instruction of a chunk of the number of chunks before execution. The method further includes determining, by a replay module executing on the processor, whether the chunk is an active chunk, and responsive to the chunk being the active chunk, executing the instruction.
