Dear Jamicide,

I spent a little time with the book "System Performance Tuning" by Mike 
Loukides. While is speaks of VAX machines and early Sun boxes, the lessons in 
that book are universal and I applied them to Windows XP with success. :)

Once you get beyond the reasonably obvious hogs, tuning gets tricky fairly 
quickly. You go into the lands of memory bandwidth, inter-cpu communication and 
lock contention.

You need to find out what subsystem is bottlenecking: cpu, memory or I/O in its 
various forms. Those are things we cannot help you with, since we have no 
access to your machines.

Interestingly, the list of resources in a machine is rather short; cpu, RAM, 
network I/O and disk I/O (for each disk). Just check each of these in turn. If 
all of these are used well below their capacity, you are likely to have 
synchronisation issues in your Java application.
