Guys, I wanted to use this opportunity to announce a project we''ve been working on for the past month and a half: D-Light. Project D-Light is a new tool that not only unifies application and system profiling, including the use of Dtrace technology, but also introduces a a simple drag ''n drop interface that interactively displays how your application is performing. In addition, you can identify the line of code you are at at any point in the timeline, giving you the information you need to make improvements, quickly. You can get a quick idea of what it is by looking at this presentation I did at JavaONE: http://sun.feedroom.com/linking/?skin=twoclip&fr_story=FEEDROOM192569 But of course, the real reason I''m writing this email is because I really want to know what you all think about it. So if the presentation looks convincing enough consider downloading the bits from here: http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/express.jsp and dropping me a note (or even expressing your opinion on the Sun Studio Tools forum: http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=852). Thanks, Roman.

I didn''t see anything in the README. -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersmith at sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering

I''ll try to bug our web people a bit and see whether they can put the same info on the web. Thanks, Roman.
