'''Flockr is slow. I would profile it, but profiling in Java is a pain''' - weird ... that is not my experience. I've had nothing but excellent results with profilers on Java code. On the microsecond level.
- st3fan 18y agoOh ... nevermind ... I was just reading his 'First stab at Clojure' post on the same blog where he writes: "First of all, I’ve never programmed in any lisp dialect. Second of all, I’ve never programmed in Java." Yeah. I guess profiling is a pain if you have never actually worked with Java before. Duh.
- jmtulloss 18y agoThe problem is there doesn't seem to be an accepted, open source profiler I can just drop in and start seeing some results. There probably is, but I haven't come up with a good way of finding these tools for Java. Being a Python guy, it's often quite frustrating to have to fight so much to find tools, and then fight so much to get them to work in the environment.
- st3fan 18y agoEclipse and Netbeans come with pretty good profilers. You can also get one of the commercial ones. I really like your Clojure blog entries btw. I am very excited to start doing similar stuff.
- jm4 18y agoI haven't found a good open source profiler so I ended up buying a commercial one. The prices are pretty steep, but they are willing to negotiate. A quick email saying it's difficult to justify $499 for a commercial license when I'm just a lone developer resulted in one vendor discounting the product to $99. It ended up being less than an academic license.
