Good recommendation, thank you. We are proceeding on that front as well,
as I should have mentioned. I think the plan is to use Optimize-It to do
the profiling, though I've been trying out the TPTP modules for Eclipse
as well and some other possibilities have also been floated. We've also
got some code set up to simulate load -- I think we're starting with
200,000 devices and building up from there.

What I meant to ask for was more along the lines of background, to
further my general education and to help me do better with the data from
the load generator and performance profiler when we work with them.

Thanks, Chris

Chris,
I think before going for performance tuning you would have to decide on
two things- A Load Generator and a Performance Profiler. Then you
generate load and profile the application to find out exactly which
layer\section of code\network needs to be tuned\upgraded. Then you focus
on tuning of that particular section.You dont want to spend hours tuning
Java code when the  problem lies in a different layer. I find this
prioritization of the object of tuning more important than the tuning
itself, which in most cases is trivial.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi all,

 

I guess this is partially off-topic, but I've been asked to start
looking at improving the performance of our application, and wanted to
start reading up on things I should be looking for, techniques to
improve performance, and so on.

 

Our application has a pretty standard stack of J2EE, WebLogic, Oracle,
Struts, JavaScript, plus some web services and SOAP, so I'm interested
in any recommendations anyone has for any of those. I found one
apparently classic text on "Oracle Performance Tuning" from O'Reilly
(aka the "bee" book) but it's from 1996 and apparently hasn't been
updated since, so I'm concerned that it's so out-of-date I wouldn't be
able to use it.

 

What would you recommend? Thanks!

 

Chris Loschen
