This paper reports on the comparison of three different platforms with respect to the time needed to perform fault injections by run time reconfiguration on a system prototype. We show that using recent devices does not necessarily bring significant gains in injection time. We also explore for the first time the use of a device with direct addressing and we show that this unique reconfiguration mode can lead to significant reduction of the injection time.
