Performance Tuning Sequence
Application developers should tune applications prior to production use. Tuning applications
often produces dramatic performance improvements. System administrators perform the
remaining steps in the following list after tuning the application, or when application tuning
has to wait and you want to improve performance as much as possible in the meantime.
Ideally, follow this sequence of steps when you are tuning performance:
Tuneyour application, describedin
Chapter 2,“TuningYour Application”
Tunethe server,described inChapter 3,“Tuning theEnterprise Server”Chapter 3,“Tuningthe
Enterprise Server”
Tunethe high availability database, describedin Chapter 6,“Tuningfor High-Availability”
Tunethe Java runtime system, describedin Chapter 4,“Tuningthe Java RuntimeSystem”
Tunethe operating system, described in Chapter 5,“Tuningthe Operating Systemand Platform”
