Along similar lines, I saw the following excellent paper presented at SPLASH 2010, about a tool developed at IBM Research for diagnosing scaling problems.

Interesting. Now I have two questions regarding this work:

1. Did they patented it? Can they patent it if they didn't already do so?

2. Is there some open source code that does something similar or that re-implements this functionality?

That might be a very interesting paper to read, but given that it is hidden behind a stupid paywall I don't think many people in the industry will notice it....
