That is alot of reading.  I will look into it.  We would build some according 
to the frameworks' ability to handle that control area.


Thank you.  I will be in touch.

Clases, Hello.


Firstly thank you for replying.  Of course our goal is to show the strengths in 
the OpenJDK.


Some weeks ago we were working with the ClassFileTransformer as an initial hook 
for a modest databasing proposal.  We found it to be a dead end.


Of course the company has greenlit further work into the area.  We would like 
to point out JDK did not have any way to hook the malloc sequence at the time.

it's great that you're showing an interest in the platform and exploring ways 
to extend/improve it.

It's somewhat coincidental that a lot of work happened in this particular area 
recently.



Please refer us to the technical lay for the Overhead Heap-Profiling reference 
you refer to; Ok.

I thought I already had, but it seems I referred to the initial implementation 
RFE twice. Sorry about that..

The high-level JEP is here: http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/331

It has the high-level overview. From there you can click through to JBS details 
for the JEP, and from there to the implementation.

For historical reference, initial discussion on the proposal here: 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/serviceability-dev/2015-June/017543.html

There were a couple of code reviews done on open lists, but I think this is the 
final round (and thread): 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/serviceability-dev/2018-May/023668.html

On top of the Low-Overhead Heap Profiling JEP mentioned, JFR was also open 
sourced in time for JDK 11. Perhaps it's memory allocation sampling is of 
interest and a workable alternative.

HTH!
