Optimizing Linux Performance: A Hands-on Guide to Linux Performance Tools

Description

This book provides readers with a quick method to understand the basics of

the Linux performance tools and allows the tools to be used immediately. It

covers the most recent (and powerful) of the Linux performance tools. For

each tool, this book provides information about the tool's purpose, the tool's

options, and an example of how to use the tool. It provides readers with a

general method for tracking down Linux performance problems while

requiring a minimal knowledge of the underlying system, allowing the reader to

be more productive and less intimidated by the performance problem at hand.

Finally, and most importantly, the reader is shown case studies that use

performance tools and

methodologies to diagnose and fix a performance problem on example open

source applications. These case studies will save readers a large amount of time,

allowing them to simply adapt a technique that already works rather than

inventing their own.
