Unique new memory analysis tools

Johannesburg, 26 Apr 2004

Quest Software has announced the availability of the latest release of Quest JProbe Suite says local Quest representative Blue Turtle Technologies.

The new release of JProbe features unique new memory analysis tools that enable J2EE and Java developers to resolve complex memory-related problems in their Java and J2EE applications faster then ever before. Along with significant enhancements in usability, automation and supported platforms, Quest JProbe continues to provide the most innovative performance tuning toolkit for Java Application, servlet, JSP and EJB code.

"Research by Quest has found that memory issues are the leading cause of performance and stability issues in Java today - even a small, well-hidden memory leak can be catastrophic under the high volume user loads of critical business applications. That`s why this release of JProbe focuses on making it easier for developers to diagnose more complex memory problems in their code," said Haydn Pinnell, Blue Turtle Business Development Manager for Quest Software. "This kind of innovation is why Java developers worldwide continue to rely on Quest JProbe as the leading tool for deep code diagnostics."

Quest JProbe is a complete performance tuning toolkit for Java code, providing powerful Java performance profiling, memory debugging, code coverage and thread analysis capabilities in one conveniently integrated suite.

The key new features in this release include:

* Powerful new memory investigation tools such as the all-new Aggregate Memory Footprint feature, which determines the hidden memory costs of creating an object.

* New Ant integration tasks and enhanced Trigger facility enables developers to better automate collection of performance data, such as during nightly builds.

* Ease-of-use improvements throughout the suite, such as improved collection set-up, standardized "Start/Finish Use Case" buttons on all tools, and more reporting features.

* Continued industry-leading environment, platform, IDE and Java VM support including support for BEA JRockit JVM and 64-bit Windows, Linux and HP-UX Itanium-based Java platforms.

"JProbe Memory Debugger has really helped us get to the root cause of memory issues in our application," said Andreas Sch"onknecht, software engineer, TUI InfoTec. "Quest JProbe has what we need to quickly resolve even tricky problems in our Java code."

Quest JProbe is part of the Quest Application Performance Management Suite for the J2EE platform, a unique integrated solution for managing J2EE applications throughout the performance lifecycle.

Blue Turtle Technologies provides innovative solutions for managing the challenges of today`s IT infrastructures. The solutions encompass IT service management, systems management, enterprise application integration and security management.
