Abstract	Runtime monitoring has proven effective in detecting property violations, but it can incur high overhead when monitoring just a single property - particularly when the property relates multiple objects. In practice developers will likely monitor multiple properties in the same execution which will lead to even higher overhead. This paper presents the first study of overhead arising during the simultaneous monitoring of multiple properties. We present two techniques for mitigating overhead in such cases that exploit reductions in cost that arise from sharing of information between property monitors. This sharing permits a single monitor to function in place of many monitors. We evaluate these techniques on the DaCapo benchmarks and 8 temporal correctness properties and find that they offer significant overhead reductions, as high as 57%, as the number of monitored properties increases. .
