I have been a follower of Darryl's blog and i think this book sort of summarises the latest technologies available on the Sun platform and how to use them. Love this book and i consider it the latest reference guide on Solaris. Definitely a must have for performance buffs!

Darryl Gove does an excellent job of covering approaches
to performance analysis and improvement. In addition,
he does an excellent job of presenting and explaining
all of the tools available on Solaris. I found myself
not only with a better idea of what is available on
Solaris, but with a better idea of what to look for on
the other platforms.

The clarity with which the entire book is written
and the level of detail it goes into is just perfect.

Highly recommended!

One often hopes for a textbook that can enlighten as well as educate and in this case Gove has done both. There were a collection of contributions in this text from various members within Sun Microsystems and the quality, talent and level of professionalism is top notch research grade. This is an essential book for anyone doing application development on UNIX and Solaris in particular.
