For the Software Engineering Tools & Metrics assignment we need to profile and find bottlenecks of a free open source Java project and submit a report with the solutions and various kind of metrics. We have been given a Image Cafe software developed by our university, in a case that we couldn’t find a suitable project. ;-) Anyway most of us use the given program as our test program. We are using java -prof command and analyze data to find any bottlenecks and solve them.
NetBeans Profiler – This is special purposes it uses java -prof function and visualize data, so need to copy prof output to OpenOffice.org calc or any other spread sheet program and format them. To be used with NetBeans IDE.
