Chapter 6. Measuring Performance
Depending on the expected and actual performance, and the lack or presence of a measuring system, performance analysis and tuning can be a fairly elaborate process. Now we will discuss the analysis of performance characteristics and ways to measure and monitor them. In this chapter we will cover the following topics:
- Measuring performance and understanding the results
- What performance tests to carry out for different purposes
- Monitoring performance and obtaining metrics
- Profiling Clojure code to identify performance bottlenecks
