  If case anyone is interested in installing dtrace on Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install bison flex zlib1g-dev libelf-dev binutils-dev libdw-dev libdwarf-dev wget ftp://crisp.dyndns-server.com/pub/release/website/dtrace/dtrace-20120409.tar.bz2 tar xvfj dtrace-20120409.tar.bz2 cd dtrace-20120409 make all sudo make install sudo make load

  ...on SmartOS.

    Profiling locally in VMware is possible, but I can't get SmartOS to work on Rackspace or Amazon.

  I'm surprised more application developers or 'scalability engineers' don't boot up d/sTrace as their tool of choice. It's probably between d/strace & heap allocations profilers for single most valuable tool in my toolchain in the general case for identifying performance problems.
