Netflix increased its throughput per CPU by 3.5x and consolidated Amazon EC2 instances after identifying performance bottlenecks using Intel Xeon processors and analysis tools like Intel PerfSpect and Intel VTune Profiler. The Netflix team partnered with Intel to evaluate lagging Amazon EC2 performance. Using a top-down analysis approach, they pinpointed issues in the Java Virtual Machine that hindered linear scaling. Fixing these issues led to significant cost savings for Netflix.
