Collecting and analyzing performance data

The performance and problem analysis tools can help you find and fix coding-related performance problems in your distributed application.

Before attempting to analyze code-related performance problems, you should first rule out configuration problems such as insufficient hardware, network problems, or poorly tuned databases. After configuration problems have been ruled out as the cause, we can then move on to diagnosing the application itself.

To analyze a performance problem in your application:

  1. Create a reproducible scenario
  2. Collect performance data
  3. Find the root cause of the performance problem, analyze memory leaks, or analyze application failures
