<div><p>Currently, no books exist that focus on the practicalities of Java application performance tuning, as opposed to the theory and internals of Java virtual machines. This practical guide is the &quot;missing link&quot; that aims to move Java performance tuning from the realm of guesswork and folklore to an experimental science.</p><ul><li>Learn how to approach performance problems in an consistent and systematic way</li><li>Resolve production performance issues by learning core Java performance topics</li><li>Identify and resolve performance issues before encountering them in production</li><li>Understand the performance problems you encounter by learning the Java platform’s internals</li></ul></div>
