[Red5] Minimize CPU usage

[Walter Tak]

Have a look at 
http://jira.red5.org/confluence/display/docs/Chapter+17.+Management

The quick version (no SSL, but password protected so it's safe)

0. open the firewall on your server(s) so you can connect from your desktop 
to port 9999 on your server
1. edit [conf/red5.properties] and make sure JMX is bound to a public 
interface/nic/IP instead of 127.0.0.1 (e.g. jmx.rmi.host=0.0.0.0 or 
jmx.rmi.host=10.20.30.40
2. change password in [conf/password.properties]
3. install java on your desktop
4. start jconsole (start -> run -> jconsole or from commandline)
5. pick 'new connections'
6. select 'remote process'
7. enter this as the connect string " 
service:jmx:rmi://doesnotmatter:12345/jndi/rmi://your.ip:9999/red5 " (yes it 
looks weird, change "your.ip" into your IP or hostname, change 9999 if you 
changed the port JMX listens on) , leave "doesnotmatter" and "12345" there 
since it isn't used
8. enter username 'red5user' and the new password
9. jconsole will show a lot of nice graphs after a few seconds.

Have fun profiling.
