This tutorial blog post is one of those experiments. See Garbage Collection Tuning Guide in the Java Platform, Standard Edition HotSpot Virtual Machine Garbage Collection Tuning Guide to discuss GC performance.We are experimenting with new training content delivery methods. Some other settings may also increase GC performance of the Java application. You can either view it perĬlass or thread to see which one consumes the most allocation. Select the TLAB Allocations page and then look at theĪllocation sites that have the most memory pressure. Lastly, to reduce the need of GCs, decrease theĪllocation rate. Often, the majority ofĪllocations happen inside TLABs. TLABs, and large objects are allocated outside TLABs. In the TLAB Allocations page, look at how much memory isĪllocated over the course of the recording. Another way to reduce the GC cycles is to allocate fewer

The GC Configuration page to estimate the heap size used by the application,Īnd change the initial heap size and maximum heap size to a higher value. One way is to increase the Java heap size. If the application spends too much time paused, you can look intoĭifferent ways to overcome this.

In addition, you may also need to fix your application so that it makes Different GCs have different trade-offs when it comes to pause times verses throughput performance. When an individual GC takes too long, you may need to change the GC strategy. The main performance problems with garbage collections are usually either that individual GCs take too long, or that too much time is spent in paused GCs (total GC pauses). Therefore, the Sum of Pauses is a good measure for the GC effect. In those cases, the length of the GC does not matter and what matters is how long the application actually had to stop. Many GCs do most of their work in the background. The Sum of Pauses is the total amount of time that the application was paused during a GC.

If your Java application's important threads are spending a lot of time without generating any application events, then the bottleneck in the application is the time spent executing code or the CPU itself.įigure 4-3 Garbage Collection Performance - GC Pausesĭescription of "Figure 4-3 Garbage Collection Performance - GC Pauses"įrom the graph look at the Sum of Pauses from the recording. In general, this is where the application code is run. This part means that the thread is not sleeping, waiting, reading to or from a socket, or not being blocked.
This often means that the thread is idle, perhaps waiting for a task. The yellow part is when threads are waiting for an object. Yellow represents Java Monitor Wait events.Heap Statistics are useful when debugging memory leaks or when investigating the live set of the application. These old GCs give some extra pause times to the application, so if you are measuring latency or if your environment is sensitive to pause times, do not run with Heap Statistics enabled. This is because enabling Heap Statistics triggers an old garbage collection at the beginning and the at end of the test run. Using Heap Statistics event, which is disabled by default, can cause significant performance overhead. Running with a standard continuous recording generally has no measurable performance effect. The overhead for recording a standard time fixed recording (profiling recording) using the default settings is less than two percent for most applications. If you have any performance tests set up, you can measure if there is any noticeable overhead on your application. The overhead will differ depending on the application. When you measure performance, it is important to consider any performance overhead added by Flight Recorder.
