  1. Java Performance -War Stories Paul McLachlan Apptio

  2. Performance Strategy • Performance tuning is a discipline • Measure, Don’t (ever) guess • Always attack #1 bottleneck first • Is success possible?

  3. Performance Strategy • Performance Strategies • Call it less • Make it more efficient • Do it in parallel • Do it beforehand • or…

  4. “Perceived Performance”

  5. Example Performance Tuning By Example

  6. A random bottleneck This is an example – please ignore the SQL stupidity (Actually – all of these snippets are for explanation purposes, YAMMV)

  7. Add a cache

  8. Don’t synchronize on the DB

  9. Use ConcurrentHashMap

  10. Don’t thrash with simultaneous hits

  11. Don’t run out of RAM

  12. Soft References • Weak/Soft/Phantom/Final References http://jeremymanson.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-hotspot-decides-to-clear_07.html -XX:SoftRefLRUPolicyMSPerMB=1

  13. Preload everything beforehand

  14. Use less RAM with .intern()

  15. How to make HashMap.get() faster?

  16. HotCache pattern

  17. Example Memory Optimizations

  18. How Much Memory?
