Review

"Complex software often uses threads, events, and I/O to produce results. Even intermittent performance bugs can lead to functional failures when results are time sensitive. Here Sites shares his methods from decades of experience as a real-world performance detective to enable you to approach the deduction skills of an IT Sherlock Holmes."
Mark D. Hill, Partner Hardware Architect at Microsoft and Professor Emeritus at the University of Wisconsin-Madison

"I think that any senior CS student or professional can benefit by reading this book. While all the material in the first half of the book leads up to the use of KUTrace, the first two parts are worth reading on their own by anyone who wants to better understand the systems they are building and using."―Rik Farrow, ;login

About the Author

Richard L. Sites wrote his first computer program in 1959 and has spent most of his career at the boundary between hardware and software, with a particular interest in CPU/software performance interactions. His past work includes VAX microcode, DEC Alpha co-architect, and inventing the performance counters found in nearly all processors today. He has done low-overhead microcode and software tracing at DEC, Adobe, Google, and Tesla. Dr. Sites earned his PhD at Stanford in 1974; he holds 66 patents and is a member of the US National Academy of Engineering.
