MongoDB Profiler

[tastypackets]

I'd be willing to go over how to use the profiler in the local environment and a few common questions people have when they first start using it.

Some common questions / general overview I have thought of so far:

• What is the profiler?
• How do you configure the profiler?
• How do you access the data collected from the profiler?
• What is collection scan and how do you locate them with the profiler?
• What are stages?
• How does the profiler compare to explain?

Extra little things:

• What does it mean to be a capped collection and how can I get around the limitations of it?
• How do I empty the profiler?

If the outcome of this is considered valuable I'd love to consider doing a follow-up LnL in the future about performance and indexing in MongoDB.
