Re: Meeting next week on THURSDAY

Our "monthly" meeting will be next week. Robert had a conflict on
Tuesday, so we'll be doing it Thursday instead, at 7PM.

RSVP for pizza-count appreciated. :)

I hope everyone can make it on Thursday. I will be showing some cool
demos with DTrace & Postgres, including a full-stack introspection from
JavaScript -> PHP -> Apache -> Postgres -> OS. If you ever have to debug
perf problem whether at application or system level, you'll definitely
appreciate the power of DTrace. It can be used to trace execution &
identify perf bottlenecks of most of the dynamic scripting languages
(e.g. PHP, Python, Ruby, etc), and the good thing is that it has been
ported to Mac OS, FreeBSD, and soon Linux (work in progress). If you
haven't had a chance to check out DTrace, you have to see it to believe
it :-)

There was a question last night about GUI tools for DTrace. There are a
couple, a stand alone Java tool called Chime and a NetBeans IDE GUI plugin.

http://opensolaris.org/os/project/dtrace-chime/
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/docs/ide/NetBeans_DTrace_GUI_Plugin_0_4.html

BTW, if any of you have ideas about new probes in Postgres, please let
me know.
