InfoQ Homepage Presentations Performance Testing Java Applications
Performance Testing Java Applications
Summary
Martin Thompson explores performance testing, how to avoid the common pitfalls, how to profile when the results cause your team to pull a funny face, and what you can do about that funny face. Specific issues to Java and managed runtimes in general will be explored, but if other languages are your poison, don't be put off as much of the content can be applied to any development.

It is always a pleasure to listen to Martin and to learn from his work. I like his trying to share his knowledge and his views, unlike many others who are not so knowledgeable but instead have a big ego.
