I disagree, Cloud Debugger isn't really for performance issues.

I vaguely recall that Cloud Debugger is more for inspecting code rather than diagnosing performance issues. Not sure if that's the right approach here.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think Logs Explorer might help too. We practiced analyzing logs in a similar question last week.

I remember we discussed using Cloud Monitoring for performance issues, especially looking at CPU and memory metrics. That seems like a solid choice.

I'm a little confused - is Error Reporting really the best option here? I thought that was more for handling application errors, not general performance issues. I'll have to double-check the differences between the tools.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. Monitoring the core system metrics is the logical first step, and then I can use Logs Explorer to analyze any relevant log data. Should be able to get to the root cause quickly.

Okay, I think the key is to start with the high-level metrics in Cloud Monitoring, but then dive deeper into the logs if I can't pinpoint the issue. Gotta be thorough here.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure here. Do I need to look at the logs as well, or is Cloud Monitoring enough on its own? I want to make sure I cover all my bases.

This seems like a good opportunity to use the tools I've learned about. I think I'll start with Cloud Monitoring to get a high-level view, and then dig into the logs if I need more detailed information.

Ah, this is a classic performance problem. I'd go with option B - Cloud Monitoring is the way to go here. It'll give me a clear picture of the resource utilization and help me identify the bottleneck.

This seems like a straightforward performance issue, so I'd start by looking at the system metrics in Cloud Monitoring. That should give me a good overview of what's going on.
