Eye on performance: A load of stress (IBM developerWorks)

[Posted October 29, 2003 by cook]

Jack Shirazi and Kirk Pepperdine write about Java performance on IBM's developerWorks. "TheServerSide.com discussion boards are usually quite active, so we stopped there this month to see what was happening in the world of performance. Given its name, it should come as no surprise that performance discussions at TheServerSide tend to focus on J2EE systems. Of course, that's a pretty wide-ranging subject, as it encompasses almost everything in the Java platform -- even J2ME systems are often clients to J2EE systems, so you can even get an occasional question about optimizing J2ME systems."
