Profiling java apps using DTrace

- monitoring operational performance of java apps
- finding bottlenecks
- examining cache effects
- example : heavily IO-bound app
- OS/X / Solaris

idea :
(a) current java profiling options : (what/where)
(b) java options on system/level profiling (we can debug / but cannot to the strace-like detailed to-syscall-mapping, oprofile-like stuff etc)

dtrace - cool caps :
