Subject: collecting profile data from Vortex

Hello
1. Executing 'x.pic --picstats' and 'x.pic' yields the same output (x.pic is 
generated by executing 'make pic' in the gen directory in which the program 
x.cecil was compiled).  Is --picstats redundant?
2. I am performing empirical analysis on Vortex to study and compare various 
single and multiple dispatch implementation schemes.  Can you please tell me 
whether the following steps are correct or should I do something additional 
to get more realistic distributions or profile data for more generic 
functions?
1. Install Vortex using $VORTEX_CSH -f $VORTEX_BASELINE/bin/shell/SETUP
2. vortex "make1o2 vortex; really_quit"
3. cd gen; make pic
4. vortex.pic --picstats "make1o2 vortex; really_quit" > profile_data.txt
In particular, should I set use_shared_libraries to false in (2) and/or (4)?
Thanks for your time.
