In this session, Claire will describe and provide solutions for common software performance anti-patterns. Anti-patterns are coding patterns in a software application that can cause performance bottlenecks such as excessive memory allocation. After describing several performance anti-patterns, she will show you how to use both IBM/Rational Quantify and Intel Amplifier to uncover these performance anti-patterns in applications.
