Compiler has been disabled. Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: Try increasing the code cache size using -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=[/cc] This cache is a memory area separate from the JVM heap that contains all the JVM

My Hip New Workflow with HipChat

I'm not a huge fan of most notifications, especially the ones that vie for my constant attention -- like badge notifications on my iPhone. However, there is a time and place for focused and timely notifications that have increased my productivity. Many people who've never used HipChat before are quick to dismiss it as a simple group chat application. However, once you use it, it becomes apparent that it's a lot more than a group chat app. One of my favorite features of HipChat is the ability to

Performance and scale testing with the JIRA Data Generator plugin

The JIRA Data Generator helps create large JIRA test instances that can be used for performance and scalability testing. It quickly generates random metadata (projects, workflows, statuses, custom fields, etc) and random test data (issues, edits, comments, issue transitions etc) spread over a user defined time period. Warning: Do not use this plug-in on a production server. The plugin generates test data very quickly and can overwhelm and pollute your production JIRA system. Test instances the

Unfortunately, most conferences are riddled with boring, uninteresting talks and
