Hello all :-)

VisualVM is a visual tool that integrates several existing JDK software
tools and lightweight memory and CPU profiling capabilities. This tool
is designed for both production and development time use and further
enhances the capability of monitoring and performance analysis for the
Java SE platform.

Using VisualVM on Ubuntu Linux 7.04 and JDK 1.6

     1. Download Visual VM (preview) from here
        (https://visualvm.dev.java.net/downloads/visualvm_preview1.zip)
     2. Unzip it and navigate to the bin directory
     3. Set the environment variable jdkhome to your JDK installation
        directory
        amit at ubuntu-laptop:~/temp-workspace/visualvm/bin$ export
        jdkhome=/home/amit/jdk1.6.0_02/
     4. Start VisualVM by using the shell script visualvm
        amit at ubuntu-laptop:~/temp-workspace/visualvm/bin$
        ./visualvm
