Synopsis

No matter what language they're programming in, developers always wish things would run faster! Especially when writing mission-critical applications, no one wants to be limited by the programming environment. Java Performance Tuning provides all the details you need to know to "performance tune" any type of Java program and make Java code run significantly faster. Java Performance Tuning contains step-by-step instructions on all aspects of the performance tuning process, right from such early considerations as setting goals, measuring performance, and choosing a compiler. There are extensive, detailed examples for tuning many parts of an application, and likely pitfalls are identified. The book also provides performance tuning checklists that enable developers to make their tuning as comprehensive as possible.
