It may have been done to death; has it been done properly? I've been playing with most of the candidates. One of the reasons for doing so is because I have in the past rolled my own and feel there must be a better way, and because the dreaded 'metrics' have cropped up again. What I'm finding is that each one does some things well. But none are anything like complete; all require considerable effort to make work anyway; and there's major investment required to fill in the gaps (or implement multiple solutions). Despite knowing that it's wrong, there's a distinct possibility that we roll our own again. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
