Re: DTrace on Linux. Short answer is no DTrace on Linux. If you're running Oracle Linux, Oracle has a partial DTrace implementation, but it's missing several key providers and the providers that are there do not work reliable. In a word, it's buggy and in my opinion not usable. There's also https://github.com/dtrace4linux/linux, a DTrace port to Linux on GitHub, but I found that to be generally buggy and unreliable as well, and I do not think it is being actively developed and debugged.**
Re: Brendan's site. It's a wealth of information on tools and utilities for diagnosing performance problems on Linux. If you're looking to get jump-started on Linux performance tools and utilities, sit back, grab an espresso, and watch several of Brendan's videos from various technical conferences and grab the slide decks on SlideShare. ** It is not my intention to cast aspersions on Paul Fox or any of the contributors to dtrace4linux. It's a huge amount of work, an extremely complex software framework and as far as I know it's work they did in their spare time. I am simply conveying my experience from about a year ago of grabbing the bits from GitHub, building and installing DTrace on Linux, and trying to use it.
