I'm doing briefings on DTrace and Solaris Performance Tools this week in Atlanta, Ft. Lauderdale, and Tampa. Click the links below to register if this is of interest and you can attend. These are pretty much a 2 1/2 to 3 hour briefing that stays pretty technical with lots of examples.
From the flyer:
Join us for our next Solaris 10 Technology Brief featuring DTrace. DTrace, Solaris 10's powerful new framework for system observability, helps system administrators, capacity planners, and application developers improve performance and problem resolution.

You can't improve what you can't see and DTrace provides safe, production-quality, top to bottom observability - from the PHP application scripts down to the device drivers - without modifying applications or the system. This seminar will introduce DTrace and the DTrace Toolkit as key parts of an overall Solaris performance and observability toolkit.
