Performance Overview 1-9
Factors in Improving Performance
Performance spans several areas:
■ Application design: Designing applications that efficiently utilize hardware
resources and handle increasing numbers of users effectively.
■ Sizing and configuration: Determining the type of hardware needed to support
your performance goals. See Chapter 3, "Sizing and Configuration".
■ Parameter tuning: Setting configurable parameters to achieve the best
performance for your application. See Chapter 5, "Optimizing Apache JServ"
and Chapter 4, "Optimizing HTTP Server Performance".
■ Performance monitoring: Determining what hardware resources are being used
by your application and what response time your users are experiencing. See
Chapter 2, "Monitoring Your Web Server".
■ Troubleshooting: Diagnosing why an application is using excessive hardware
resources, or why the response time exceeds the desired limit.
