GoogleTalksArchive
Bryan Cantrill's 2007 Google Tech Talk on DTrace, showing how dynamic tracing improves debugging of both development and live production systems. It includes a vivid war story about tracking down a problem on a Sun Ray server.
HN regards it as a gem of a technical talk that tackles a fundamental debugging problem and shows a new technology solving it.
