Well from what you state - it would seem the case that your app is using more than you have allocated it hence purge via GC to clear the queue.
What are your server specs? I would also remove XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGC -XX:+PrintGCDetails -Xms256m. I know they are probably for debugging but they will have a detrimental effect on performance. -----Original Message----- From: Chris Norloff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 May 2005 13:27 To: CF-Talk Subject: CFMX GC every 60 sec.? Is it right for Garbage Collection to run every 60 sec., as regular as clockwork? (CFMX 6.1 server, with updater, Solaris 8. JVM settings: -server -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+UseParallelGC -Djavax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory=com.macromedia.crimson.jaxp.SAXParserFa ctoryImpl -Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=com.macromedia.crimson.jaxp.Docum entBuilderFactoryImpl -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGC -XX:+PrintGCDetails -Xms256m -Xmx768m) I'm trying to decide if what I'm seeing is right: - first unloaded classes after running for 13 min. - PSPermGen getting to 98% but not increasing size to what's available (MaxPermSize=256m) - 'from space' in PSYoungGen regularly filling, appears to be causing the GC. - GC runs every 60 sec. - PSOldGen gets the most space of the heap, but 'from space' in PSYoungGen is what *needs* the space. - NOTE: this is with the server idle. Now I need to see it under load. thanks, Chris Norloff ---------------------------------------------- Heap PSYoungGen total 87168K, used 84000K [0xb9000000, 0xbe550000, 0xc9000000) eden space 3008K, 0% used [0xb9000000,0xb9000000,0xb92f0000) from space 84160K, 99% used [0xb92f0000,0xbe4f8000,0xbe520000) to space 192K, 0% used [0xbe520000,0xbe520000,0xbe550000) PSOldGen total 174784K, used 6449K [0xc9000000, 0xd3ab0000, 0xe9000000) object space 174784K, 3% used [0xc9000000,0xc964c5a8,0xd3ab0000) PSPermGen total 16640K, used 16453K [0xe9000000, 0xea040000, 0xf9000000) object space 16640K, 98% used [0xe9000000,0xea011630,0xea040000) 15399.411: [Full GC 90449K->6460K(261952K), 0.6580179 secs] Heap after GC invocations=510: ------------------------------------------------------------ - just like clockwork. this is obviously the established pattern.
