โฆ Synopsis
- The first comprehensive, expert guide for end-to-end Linux application optimization * Learn to choose the right tools-and use them together to solve real problems in real production environmentsSuperior application performance is more crucial than ever-and in today's complex production environments, it's tougher to ensure, too. If you use Linux, you have extraordinary advantages: complete source code access, plus an exceptional array of optimization tools. But the tools are scattered across the Internet. Many are poorly documented. And few experts know how to use them together to solve real problems. Now, one of those experts has written the definitive Linux tuning primer for every professional: Optimizing LinuxR Performance.
