This chapter is about WebLogic Server stability and performance, but most of the recipes are focused on stability.

For the WebLogic Administrator, stability should come first in the priority list of objectives. It is improbable that an unstable system achieves sufficient performance.

This chapter provides simple but effective small tunings, targeting a stable and predictable production environment.

In most cases, the performance should suffice if the environment is very stable, with predictable behavior and common bottlenecks removed.
