In this talk, you’ll be introduced to the basic concepts of profiling Java code using perf_events (aka perf). You’ll see how to collect stack traces and how to use Flame Graphs to provide a dynamic visual display for them. This, in turn, allows you to see if your code has room for improvement – and where it could be improved – in an easy and scalable way.

It doesn’t matter if you are coding a one-hundred or a one-hundred thousand-line application, the Flame Graph visualizer will make it easy to spot CPU hogs! After checking some basic how-to steps and recipes, I will take a deeper dive into using perf and Flame Graphs, to demonstrate how to make the most of these tools.
