      hi,

          It's a very subjective question. It really depends.

          It depends on what you are doing, what kind of features you are looking for and what kind of user you are.


          I have developed JBossProfiler and it works well with jbossAS.

          I also know JProbe, Yourkit and JProfiler and all of them work fine also with JBoss.

            I am using YourKit, which is very good except it's quite expensive.

            regards

              Performance, memory (leaks) ...

              I've tryed thid, but have some problems under Windows 2000. It wil be deployed, but the profiler can't find the logs.

                Well, I've seen other people using it without any problems. Probably you are having some understanding problem.

                If you want to use it, post me a question in the Development forum for JbossProfiler. Usually I'm pretty fast answering it.

                For memory leaks, I have a new version introspecting the heap using JVMTI (JVM 5). I've added this versionin a JIRA task for now:
