There's SystemTap and perf. I've used both, they are quite nice.

Yes, and I worked at such an environment. We had to support Solaris crap because the company was paying millions to Sun every year. I'm glad this company went out of business not long before Oracle bought Sun.

> It is really so big problem with keep record of all linux developers and send spam with sing some agreement? Or still no one even tried to organize this?
Considering that some developers are dead, a couple are in prison and lots of others simply WOULD NOT sign any agreement? Yeah, it's a big problem.
