| Dynamic Bytecode Instrumentation
|
| Profiling Java applications is often considered a black art. There are
|
| tools available to help you track down performance bottlenecks and memory-
|
| allocation problems, but they are not always easy to use, particularly when
|
| profiling large applications. Because large applications tend to be those
|
| that most need profiling, this presents a significant problem. Dynamic
|
| bytecode instrumentation is an innovative solution to these problems. It
|
| lets you control precisely which parts of an application are profiled.
