Rob Windsor on WCF with REST, JSON and RSS
WCF is not just for SOAP based services and can be used with popular protocols like RSS, REST and JSON. Join Rob Windsor as he introduces WCF 3.5 and its new native support for non-SOAP services.

Quite often performance problems will be reported with some very antidotal comments that do nothing to help you understand where to start looking. Faced with this dilemma, it is not uncommon for teams to start guessing at the root cause.Scaling a Massively Multi-player Server Casestudy: Terracotta on SmartFoxServer

This chat doesn't really deserve its own nomenclature does it? "The Box" == "The box of obvious stuff". - Look at system load - Use some system tools - Java has gc. - creating zillions of threads can be harmful.
The author did not mention that using synchronized methods locks the whole instance of the class and very often causes significant performance degradation. WBR, Dmytro
Handling performance requirements is vital part of any software development effort. If you end up needing the "box" someone hasn't done their job properly. In terms of fixing bad performance, I don't agree that you should go from bottom and upwards. It doesn't help to tune the hardware, VM and database of an application thats badly designed/constructed. Usually you have to work both ways (both at application level and infrastructure level) at the same time, and choose what gives most effect and lowest risk. Final advice: Get real volumes of data and measure!

I think this comment is a bit unfair. It is like saying that bugs are because someone hasn't done their job properly. There are many reasons why performance problems creep into for many reasons. For example, concurrency issues often can't be found until you start integration testing. At that point you maybe into a full diagnostic effort on the application. This is a normal course of development in an imperfect world

The article isn't about tuning, it is about a process of diagnostics, understanding that you really do have a problem with the DB as well as determining if the problem is caused by your application or by the DB its self.
The process is about ensuring consistency of results in your tuning efforts so that you're not wasting time fixing phantom problems. This, IME is the lowest risk way to proceed.

At one time I might have agreed with this. However I have found that people have found this visualization of the *obviously* useful. It is a rough abstraction, it is flawed but even so....
