Alik, this is an excellent case study which documents not only fundamentals of analysis, diagnosis, & remediation, but also & perhaps more importantly that we oughtn't jump on the latest-&-greatest simply because either 1) marketeering hype &/or 2) that the latest-&-greatest often isn't actually the greatest.

Jimmy,

Thanks for good words.

I am actually fine with 1) and 2). What bothers me the most is in many cases folks are just throwing tools/money/CPU/RAM on problems; it never helps in long run.

Approach matters.

Look what a great quote I found here:

"Application performance is not an event or something you do once — it's a practice."
