Systems Performance, Second Edition, covers concepts, strategy,
tools, and tuning for operating systems and applications, using
Linux-based operating systems as the primary example. A deep
understanding of these tools and techniques is critical for
developers today. Implementing the strategies described in this
thoroughly revised and updated edition can lead to a better
end-user experience and lower costs, especially for cloud computing
environments that charge by the OS instance. Systems performance
expert and best-selling author Brendan Gregg summarizes relevant
operating system, hardware, and application theory to quickly get
professionals up to speed even if they have never analyzed
performance before. Gregg then provides in-depth explanations of
the latest tools and techniques, including extended BPF, and shows
how to get the most out of cloud, web, and large-scale enterprise
systems. Key topics covered include Hardware, kernel, and
application internals, and how they perform Methodologies for rapid
performance analysis of complex systems Optimizing CPU, memory,
file system, disk, and networking usage Sophisticated profiling and
tracing with perf, Ftrace, and BPF (BCC and bpftrace) Performance
challenges associated with cloud computing hypervisors Benchmarking
more effectively Featuring up-to-date coverage of Linux operating
systems and environments, Systems Performance, Second Edition, also
addresses issues that apply to any computer system. The book will
be a go-to reference for many years to come and, like the first
edition, required reading at leading tech companies. Register your
