The heap buffer overflow example output is incorrect[edit]

Looks like a copy-paste of the heap-use-after-free example above. Can someone fix this example with the appropriate asan output for the buffer overflow example? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:0:1000:1B03:E4A4:17C:5B9E:F25C (talk) 23:58, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed the compile command and fixed the output. However I can't figure out how to cut and paste and keep the output colors... --Skintigh (talk) 16:09, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What does it mean "to slow down sth. by n times"?[edit]

The article says "The tool slows down programs by approximately 2 times ." and I do not understand what is meant. The question that comes to mind is: Compared to what other slowdown is it two times slower? Even if it is rewritten to "The tool slows down programs approximately by a factor of two." I find the meaning not very easy to grasp and am still unsure about it.

After some thinking I think the author means: "The modified program takes twice the time of the original program to complete." or "It has half the speed compared to the original."

I took a quick look at the source material to verify my assumption and I have to say, that without Figure 2, I had problems knowing what the authors of the paper meant by a "73 % slowdown". What does that mean:

Is the speed only 27 % of the original program.
Does it take 73 % more time to complete?

With the graph in figure 2 it is clear that what is actually meant is: The time it takes to complete is increased by 73 % on average. I think the ambguity of the paper is kind of transferred to this article.

I am no native speaker of the English language, so I might not know this particular way of expression, correct me if I am wrong.

why %t in the example commands?[edit]

Why %t in commands like clang++ -O -g -fsanitize=address %t && ./a.out? Is this defined by AddressSanitizer, by clang, or by the shell? If the latter, then we need to specify which shell. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quintus V. (talk • contribs) 09:05, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The comment looks like a unittest thing, where %t is the test file name. Let's clarify it. Artoria 2e5 🌉 02:08, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ReactOS may eventually port and use this[edit]
