The home page of Dr. Neil Gunther. Gunther is the author of Practical
Performance Analyst. This book, the site and the course work he produces
lays the foundation for the performance analysis needed in any system architecture
effort. Without a "deep" understanding of the performance capabilities
and impacts of the architecture on the performance of the system, the design
effort is "just whistling in the dark."
