RE: Performance Monitoring Tools
Although it might sound strange I do not believe in low level tools such as OptimzeIt on EJB level - first stage. Usually you end up using a component based framework which might be distributed and EJB overhead just changes results significantly. We switched to a simple set of classes which measure response time on component level and watch it under load. In most cases we are able to locate our hot spots easily. I can not release these classes to public - just think about something which allows you to mark the beginning and the end of a "transaction", measure the time in between - and cumulate.

Hi Jorge. For generating the load, I have found both Siege and Grinder to be effective. Not fancy, but definately effective. -Steve Jorge Jimenez C wrote: > Hello.

Re: Performance Monitoring Tools
Optimizeit was quite useful to me. Cpu Usage, Object count, Memory usage, Garbage Collector activity. Also tracked the amount of time spent in each function call. -Steve Cugier (extern) wrote: > Hello, > > we are planning to perform some load tests against our application (Servlet, > JSP and EJBs).

Re: Performance Monitoring Tools
Hello. I have to do the same tests. Can you please tell me about the loading test tools that you've found. Thanks in advance.
