Neil J. Gunther

Analyzing Computer System Performance with Perl::PDQ (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Analyzing computer systems performance has always been both a tedious and recurring task of system administrators, programmers and project managers. Finally this new book by acclaimed performance analyst Neil J. Gunther makes this difficult subject understandable and manageable. After a minimum of clearly explained queuing and probability theory, Gunther presents hands-on techniques and sample PERL scripts using the open source tool Pretty Damn Quick. Separate chapters deal with performance analysis of multicomputer architectures, client/server systems, and web applications. The text includes numerous examples that address systems of a realistic scale.
