Clustering and distributing Java applications has never been easier than it is today (see Terracotta). As a result, writing good distributed performance tests and tuning those applications is increasingly important. Performance tuning and testing of distributed and/or clustered applications is an important skill and many who do it can use a little help. Over my next few blogs I'm going to cover a series of anti-patterns in this area. I'll be following it up with a simple open distributed testing framework that I hope can help people out (hint, hint, the testing framework itself is distributed to best test distributed apps).
