10.1 | 1 | A profiler is a development tool that lets you examine memory useage and other bottlenecks in your app. |

12.1 | 3 | === Kieran Kelleher === |

| |
19.1 | 5 | Free and simple. I like the built-in sun monitoring tool. Java 1.5+ only. |
| |
12.1 | 6 | |
| 7 | Simply add appropriate argument to your launch configuration: | ||

19.1 | 8 | [[image:attach:config.jpg]] |
| |
12.1 | 9 | |
| 10 | After that, open your unix terminal and type jconsole which launches the monitoring console and detects running java apps. Select your app and watch it at work. I like the Memory and Threads tabs. | ||

| 15 | I've tried some of them. | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | For the big problems jprofiler is great. The docs are useful, the interface is good and the performance is okay. | ||
| |
19.1 | 18 | I prefer jMechanic. It's small, free and works together with WOLips. Just some clicks to set it up. |
| |
6.1 | 19 | |
| 20 | I don't remember much about the others. Some of them don't run under MacOSX and it can take a lot of time to find how to use them together with WO. | ||

| 28 | If profiling on Windows is an option, you might also want to look at jSprint: | ||

19.1 | 29 | [[http:~~/~~/www.javaperformancetuning.com/tools/jsprint/index.shtml>>url:http://www.javaperformancetuning.com/tools/jsprint/index.shtml||shape="rect"]] |
| |
6.1 | 30 | |
| |
10.1 | 31 | It is shareware, US$50. I've used it and was satisfied with it. It seems like a good deal for the price. I've not (yet) used jMechanic, so I can't compare the two. |
| |
6.1 | 32 | |
| |
19.1 | 33 | Before you buy anything or try anything you would be well advised to spend a couple of hours at the above Java Performance Tuning site reading up on it: [[http:~~/~~/www.javaperformancetuning.com/index.shtml>>url:http://www.javaperformancetuning.com/index.shtml||shape="rect"]] |
| 34 | There is a lot of good information there. | ||

10.1 | 36 | === David Hrivnak === |
| |
6.1 | 37 | |
| 38 | (As of March 2007 the J-Sprint link above does not seem to work - the software may not be available anymore) | ||
| |
19.1 | 39 | None of the tools on this page appear to work with WebObjects 4.5.1 on Windows. |
| |
6.1 | 40 | |

10.1 | 41 | === Mike Schrag === |

6.1 | 42 | |
| |
19.1 | 43 | I use [[JProfiler>>url:http://www.ej-technologies.com/products/jprofiler/overview.html||shape="rect"]] from [[ej-technologies>>url:http://www.ej-technologies.com||shape="rect"]]. It works as well as any of the other big named profilers, and it has explicit support for WebObjects. It is, however, not free like some of the other suggestions. |

6.1 | 46 | |
| 47 | The CHUD tools (i.e. Shark) work on Java. | ||
| |
18.1 | 48 | |
| 49 | === Using Shark with WebObjects === | ||
| 50 | |||
| |
19.1 | 51 | If you want to use Shark, Mark Ritchie did a [[presentation>>url:http://www.wocommunity.org/podcasts/wowodc/west08/WOWODC08_Shark.mp4||shape="rect"]] about using Shark with WebObjects at WOWODC 2008. |
