Thad,
Well, rrrLic is the most popular one. Probably because it is easier to
understand than hardcor logfile analysis...
Regardless of the tool you use (Notepad works), I would urge everyone to
use the logfiles more. Both for performance and troubleshooting issues.
You do not need to know that much to make use of them.
I did a presentation at UKRUG about performance tuning with logfiles.
Please let me know if you want a copy of the presentation. It goes through
the important API-calls for performance, and maps them to the actual
workflow involved to trigger them.
Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se
