I want to profile my jBoss Apps on a remote server. I've tried the Eclipse TPTP project but with an invoked agent my jBoss Portal doesn't start and it ends in unlimited lines of exceptions.

jProfiler doesn't work either, portal doesn't boot.

Netbeans IDE Profiling seems only to work on local machines or did I missed something?

How do you profile your web apps?

The VisualVM from the JDK6 works with JBoss Portal (tested with Portal 2.7.1).

I use YourKit to profile JBoss servers, and not just in development, either - the YourKit agent runs on production servers, with no performance impact until the GUI is attached. Works very well.

If you have money to buy it, yourkit is indeed very nice. –  Pascal Thivent Nov 18 '09 at 13:50
Does it have a export functionality? I may want to analyze the data afterwards... –  RickB Mar 14 '13 at 22:11
