DTrace is the swiss army knife to analyze the behavior of applications and enabling you to gather detailed information from the bottom of your application stack up to the top. DTrace is used by system administrators and developers, on Solaris, Mac OSX and FreeBSD, to do in-depth analysis of an application, to find and reduce performance bottlenecks and problems in productive system.

This was a pretty good talk, especially considering that the subject was very specific and technical. I have no experience with dtrace other than running some of the examples in its documentation as an experiment, so seeing the PHP and MySQL probes at work in a live environment was very useful. It was about as practical as you can get in an hour but I wouldn't mind a workshop about really writing D scripts though!

Way to low level for me. Expected another talk, but that was probably my own mistake. Overall good presentation.
