Hello, We receive more and more tickets about performance problems when zooming/panning the map. The subject is complex and to help analyzing it I asked to YourKit a free license for JOSM, as neither VisualVM nor Java Mission Control match my need to find hotspots: https://www.yourkit.com/java/profiler/features/
They agreed so we can receive personal licenses for every JOSM core developer interested in using this tool. In return they require that we place a small free-form text acknowledgment/testimonial at the project web site. The acknowledgment should contain: 1) The YourKit logo and a text that JOSM uses YourKit profiler. The following logo must be used: https://www.yourkit.com/images/yklogo.png 2) Acknowledgment should contain a hyperlink reference to YourKit web site. For example: "YourKit supports open source projects with its full-featured Java Profiler. YourKit, LLC is the creator of <a href="https://www.yourkit.com/ java/profiler/">YourKit Java Profiler</a>, innovative and intelligent tools for profiling Java and .NET applications." I tried the tool with a trial license and it is really great so it will help to fix performance bottlenecks. @Dirk: no objection to add this to the JOSM website? @team: for those interested, please send me in private your name, surname and e-mail information you would like to share with YourKit to obtain the personal license. I'll send the list by Friday. Cheers, Vincent
