Appendix F
Remote Servlet Profiling

You can use Optimizeit! 3.0 from Intuitive Systems to perform remote profiling on the iPlanet Web Server to discover bottlenecks in server-side performance.

You can purchase Optimizeit! from Intuitve Systems at:

http://www.optimizeit.com/index.html

Once Optimizeit! is installed using the following instructions, it becomes integrated into iPlanet Web Server 4.1.

To enable remote profiling, make the following modifications in the jvm12.conf files as appropriate:

jvm.enableClassGC=0 
jvm.option=-Xrunoii # this is only required for JDK1.2
jvm.profiler=optimizeit 
java.compiler=NONE 
OPTITDIR=optimizeit_root_dir/OptimizeIt30D

When the server starts up with this configuration, you can attach the profiler (for further details see the Optimizeit! documentation).

Also, update the PATH and NSES_CLASSPATH system variables to include the profiler's own jar files and dll files.

NOTE: If any of the configuration options are missing or incorrect, the profiler may experience problems that affect the performance of the iPlanet Web Server.
