JProbe pricing from http://www.sitraka.com/software/jprobe/pricing.html: JProbe Coverage(Windows only): US$649, GSS Purchase US$200, GSS Renewal US$200 (GSS=Gold Subscription with Support). And you can also get the whole JProbe Suite (Profiler, Memory Debugger, Coverage, Threadalyzer) for US$1999 which includes GSS. You can get an evaluation version of the whole JProbe suite at: http://www.sitraka.com/try/ Clover Pricing from http://www.thecortex.net/clover/purchase.html: Single Developer License: US$125 Continuous Integration License: US$1125 The page says "Introductory Price" which suggests that the prices may increase in the future. Another advantage of JProbe over Clover is that JProbe has been around for a lot longer and is more mature product. Clover, on the other hand, seems to have only come into existence in May. > And personally, I'd like to know *how* JProbe Coverage does runtime > instrumentation...

JProbe uses JVMPI, the JVM Profiling Interface. > Or is there a third way I didn't envision, or is it simply magic??? It's all in the elbow. While I'm about it, I might as well plug PerformaSure which is another Sitraka product for measuring the performance of J2EE systems at runtime across multi-tier systems. It's the product that I work on at Sitraka, and personally, I think it's very cool. Check it out: http://www.sitraka.com/software/performasure/ Who? Me? Biased? Nah...
