eclipse 内存分析器看到整个堆转储(8GB)的一小部分(363,2MB) [英] eclipse memory analyzer sees small part (363,2MB) of entire heap dump (8GB)

问题描述

I was trying to investigate java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC limit exceeded which occurs at high load of our web app deployed in tomcat. Heap size was set to 8GB (-Xms2048m -Xmx8192m)

At some point in time our application become unresponsive due to GC activity overhead. I could see in logs that Full GC was occurring multiple times in a row. So I took heap dump with following command (jmap -F -dump:format=b,file=/root/dump2.hprof 4963). File containing dump was 9GB in size. After dump was taken (app was frozen for about 45minutes), multiple full GCs occured till OutOfMemoryError was thrown.

Here is a log sample of GC activity

To analyze heap dump I opened it in eclipse memory analyzer (MAT). Unfortunately MAT displays that heap size was 363.2MB (in overview tab or heap dump details tab), whereas according to GC logs heap was filled up to 6467961K (6.4G). Unreachable Objects Histogram shows in total 75 511 736 (75 MB). Histogram view also confirmed that total shallow heap was 380 837 136 (363.2MB)

My question is why MAT doesn't display all objects from heap dump if GC cannot reclaim memory?

env details:
Eclipse Memory Analyzer Version 1.2.1
heap dump taken on
java version "1.7.0_13"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_13-b20)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)

Here are screenshots of imported heap dump in MAT:

• overview
• unreachable

解决方案

MAT does not display the unreachable objects by default.

You can enable the option by going to Preferences -> Memory Analyzer -> Keep Unreachable Objects. Load the heap again once the option is enabled.

It will show the complete heap once the option is enabled. Even I was in same situation and was not able to get much information online and my manager showed me the option.Hope it helps.
