If you want to try out some of the examples in petformance book, you have to buy that suite. Again, the motivation here is to minimize the amount of time and effort in tracking down when a performance issue is introduced.
An authoritative guide to creating faster, more reliable applications, for intermediate to advanced programmers. Bbinu, however, you only need a small improvement to meet your performance goals, then looking at the hottest method and improving it will likely offer a quicker means to your end goal than the “hottest call path” approach.
After all, they’re usually trying to solve similar problems. Amazon Renewed Refurbished products with a warranty. Update Company name to: I sat in an airport reading this for quite a while as some guy next to me sat talking on his phone helping people troubleshoot Linux servers. So one cannot rule out this book as outdated. Can’t say I read it all. Apart from that, authors are a little biased towards Oracle, e. In particular, the expected performance of the application is something that jlhn be well understood as early as possible.
Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. A knowledge and understanding of the hcarles of the JVM can be useful and hopefully interesting to anyone who works on moderate to complex Java applications. Sams Teach Yourself Java in 24 Hours. The reason carles assumption and approach has flaws is its difference in CPU architecture.
Book Review and Interview: Java Performance, by Charlie Hunt and Binu John
Finally, even though they provide detailed code listings which are used to indicate different techniques for performance anaylsis and profiling, they are not from real world scenarios and this artificial examples might not be very helpful for the majority of the developers apart from demonstration purposes.
The only knock I have on this book and it is a small one at that is they talk exclusively about Oracle Solaris Performance Analyzer as the tool they use to handle the code profiling. This pop-up will close itself in a few moments. From start to finish, it is not difficult to see that if you want to consider yourself a serious Java performance engineer, you need to master the majority of the book.
Duoyi Wu rated it really liked it Mar 16, Don’t have a Kindle? Sometimes it may be application profiling, sometimes it may be JVM tuning and sometimes it may be tuning an operating system, our experience is that it’s rarely operating system tuning. Also, we noticed there were folks who were using combinations of Java HotSpot VM command line options that just didn’t make sense.
Book Review and Interview: Java Performance, by Charlie Hunt and Binu John
Update company role to: As well as reflecting changes in the underlying technology, and available optimisation techniques, the book reflects changes in common software engineering practices, for example advocating the inclusion of performance testing as part of the continuous build cycle, and involving project stakeholders in setting performance tuning metrics early.
Ideally, you’d like to catch performance issues before they ever get integrated into a project’s source code repository. In addition, we recognized that there was a lot of interest in knowing more about the Java HotSpot VM internals along with some structure around how to go about tuning it. The book covers an important topic which you normally have to deduce through trial and error and piecing together disparate bits of information on the Oracle Technology site so from a content perspective it is great, but If there are concerns about whether that performance can be met early in the software development process, then you have the luxury to mitigate that risk by conducting some experiments to identify whether those risks are “real” along with whether you may need to make some alternative decisions, which may require a major shift in the choice of software architecture, design or implementation.

Our hope is chrales readers will find at least one thing in the book that helps them. Additionally, thinking about performance and talking about performance early on at requirements gathering time helps set expectations from both the folks who are building the application and the folks who will be using it.

The need for hiring performance specialists should come out of not being able to find a performance issue, or perhaps with advising on how to go about making performance testing part of unit and functional testing.
They refrain from making bold statements and always stress how these things are very context sensitive and without proper measurement and profiling not many things can be generalized. Huny will be sent an email to validate the new email address. Migrating to Microservice Databases. Despite these criticisms, however, the book is an excellent, if Oracle-centric, guide to the subject. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account.

Adam rated it it was ok Jun 22, The larger the variability, the more difficult it is to identify whether you’re really observing improvements or regressions in your performance jaga efforts or it’s just random noise variability in running the experiments.

Refresh and try again. An introduction to Java, for readers with some previous programming experience. If you have a good understanding of what you want to learn from your performance tests and you don’t have the luxury of an exact replica of a production environment, you need to know how your testing environment deviates from the production environment.
