Nearpoint search reduces the time required to perform an exception entry lookup by grouping transparent functions by their unwind information and sorting all groups of functions by size from largest to smallest. This ordering allows for a lookup table to be built that can provide information of where to find an exception entry. The goal for valid nearpoint tables is to ensure that for all inputs, every output is within 8 entries of the desired entry. The current format of the nearpoint table and descriptors is experimental and thus may change between new updates.
