5.0 out of 5 stars Best performance tuning reference around for Solaris Nov 18 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Great book. I can't say enough good things about Adrian's work. This book has lots of useful information on improving performance on Solaris machines. Really good information on tuning the tcp/ip stack, however, I wish there had been more of it. If you're looking to tune Solaris, this one is a must have.

5.0 out of 5 stars As practical as a swiss-knife for a power-hungry SysAdmin. Mar 20 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
For all the Sun gurus, veterans and newbies: this is for you. As a must-have in one's library, it'll be one of your most worn out references in your serious IT career.
It is practical and very illustrative in its approach to solving sample problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book Nov 30 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I'd recommend this book to any Solaris Systems Administrator/Benchmark Engineer who deals with Performance Monitoring and tuning at this job. The book goes in great technical detail about the various parameters. It is a little old (was published in 1994 when Solaris was still in 2.3) but it helps in understanding Solaris internals from a systems professional standpoint.
