There are multiple tools available for CPU and memory profiling, jvisualvm is fairly new among these.

Are there any comparison/benchmarking between these tools? Which tool is better than other?

    +1. I wonder if somebody could provide comparison for YourKit – Petro Semeniuk Jun 16 '11 at 09:41
  • I would've liked to see an answer to this, but it's closed. I believe visualvm is the newer replacement for jprofiler, both free. I believe YourKit is commercial / not free. I was looking for info on visualvm because the monitor graphics "jump around" when monitoring memory, I think due to sampling issues. But I'll look a bit more before posting. – Mark Bennett Jul 01 '11 at 20:54

I used YourKit Java Profiler and I was satisfied. Additionally, it is free for open-source projects (so I did not have to pay for it ;) )
