Title: Get Cervone's book
Review: The author used this book in addition to his notes to teach his Unix Performance course at the UCalif at Santa Cruz Extention(which is next to San Jose Airport). Maybe the two day course was too short, but there were not enough coverage to be useful. While there are detailed account for raw performance comparisons between different hardware platforms, and hardware resource usage topics, there are no sections on performance tuning which is what you want out of this course. Yeah may be that topic is in the referenced books. Afterwards I went back to get the Cervone book(old but good) and discovered what I was missing. So know what you need before you buy. I didn't have a choice.
Is the review positive or negative?
