Open Source Java Profiling Software

(Diver is in the process of being moved to GitHub. Please find us at https://github.com/thechiselgroup/Diver. Support requests & messages sent here may never be seen.) Dynamic Interactive Views For Reverse Engineering. Div/er is a set of Eclipse Plugins that aid developers in understanding software. It uses dynamic analysis and reverse engineering to offer views and filters that aid comprehension and discovery.

This benchmark suite is intend as a tool for the research community. It consists of a set of open source, real world applications with non-trivial memory loads.

ParTools allows the interactive analysis of a C program execution profile and data dependencies to facilitate the discovery and selection of suitable parallelization candidates in a manual parallelization process. The flow does not assume any specific parallelization technique, thus it can be broadly applied. The original (serial) C source is automatically annotated to trace the execution profile and data dependencies at run-time. The annotated program is then executed using a significant (but small) data set selected by the developer. The data collected is cross-referenced with the original source and can be interactively analyzed graphically to determine the best parallelization candidates and techniques.

Beet adds user behavior and performance tracking to a Spring-based Java app. HTTP requests, method calls, and SQL statements are tracked and associated to user and session. includes XML, binary XML, and JDBC loggers. See http://beet.sourceforge.net.

JRat is the Java Runtime Analysis Toolkit. Its purpose is to enable developers to better understand the runtime behavior of their Java programs. The term behavior includes, but is not limited to performance profiling.

JIP is a high performance, low overhead profiler that is written entirely in Java. JIP gives the developer the ability to turn the profiler on and off while the VM is running. You can also filter out classes and packages as well as control the output.

Kieker is a framework for continuous monitoring and dynamic analysis of distributed software systems. Being designed for continuous operation, it induces only a low overhead. The TraceAnalysis tool allows to analyze and visualize trace information.

Volta is a suite of development tools for distributed, hard real-time systems. It includes Cascade, a control flow analysis tool for Java, and Clepsydra, a worst-case execution time analyzer. Also included is a Clepsydra plug-in for jEdit.

Madmap is a tool to help analyze java heap dumps. New in v1.1 it supports hprof ascii and now binary dumps collected with jmap. It helps find memory leaks by showing the live set and automatically calculating which objects retain the most heap size.

An adaptable, platform-agnostic application incident reporting infrastructure ranging from logging libs and webservice-based reporting to a J2EE logging server to a pluggable connection to issuemanagers.

Jensor is a light-weight, low-overhead Java Profiler built using Java BCI. Jensor provides innovative analysis modules like JVM Replay, Pattern Analysis and Tagging Engine for technical as well as business analysis based on the same underlying data.

An implementation of the Open Group's Application Response Measurement (ARM) Version 4 standard. The ARM standard describes a means of breaking an application down into it's constituent transactions, and measuring response time across multiple tiers.

jMonit is a thin, performant, easy to use monitoring toolkit you can add to your app to monitor it's use on production server, including performances, load and scalability. jMonit tracks execution time and threads activity but can also gather any numeri

Glassbox is an automated troubleshooting and monitoring agent for Java apps that diagnoses common problems with one-click. Drop in a .war file from http://www.glassbox.com and find out what's wrong with your existing web apps, without any code chang

Appspy is a user experience profiling tool. With Appspy you will be able to know what your users are doing. Be careful, this may result in dramatic improvements of your software ;-)

Elvyx is a tool designed to monitor and profile the jdbc activity on java projects. This jdbc profiler has a server with a built-in db and a client to improve the experience.

Performance Monitoring Tool for Java / J2EE Applications. Features: light-weight profiler, AOP based, lists API times, JDBC / SQL statistics, central logging, cluster support, web UI, call trees, configurable monitoring levels.

This is a dynamic slicing tool for Java programs. The tool modifies the Kaffe virtual machine to collect the execution trace, and compress the trace on-the-fly. Please proceed to the tool's website http://jslice.sourceforge.net/ for download.

Java Oracle Resource Profiler

A collection of performance analysis software that can assist with a variety of techniques useful for application software optimization and benchmarking. The current release provides support for analysis with hardware performance counters on Linux.

log4js has moved to Github: http://stritti.github.io/log4js.

JSnapshot is an advanced java exception logging, monitoring and analysis tool. It traces thrown exceptions in real-time and logs a snapshot of call stack, variables and objects for every thrown exception. Fully integrated with Eclipse IDE.

JTombstone is a program for finding dead code in your Java programs. It reports on dead code at the method level, by processing Java class files. No source code is needed to use it. JTombstone is a Java program and requires JDK 1.4 or later.

This profiler (JRE 1.5.0 only) uses JVMTI and native bytecode instrumentation for the analysis of the heap, reachable objects, execution time, garbage collection efficiency, code coverage and thread contention. No preparation steps required in build.

Stopwatch is a simple, highly extensible, API that alows monitoring of any part of the application. It reports hits, execution times and load but can be extended to do more via custom engines. It is able to persist data in "in-memory" or real database.
