For those DTrace (& Mac) fans out there....

   Track down problems

   When you need a bit more help in debugging, Xcode 3.0 offers an
   extraordinary new program, Xray. Taking its interface cues from
   timeline editors such as GarageBand, now you can visualize  
application
   performance like nothing you’ve seen before. Add different  
instruments
   so you can instantly see the results of code analyzers. Truly track
   read/write actions, UI events, and CPU load at the same time, so you
   can more easily determine relationships between them. Many such Xray
   instruments leverage the open source DTrace, now built into Mac OS X
   Leopard. Xray. Because it’s 2006.

Apple's using DTrace ... and they've put a GUI onto it.  Cool!

An obvious consequence of open-sourcing DTrace.
