Good evening. In a application that I'm responsible for, Metaspace is set to 1.1GB. Specifically the following flags are set:
-XX:MetaspaceSize=1152m -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=1152m -XX:MinMetaspaceFreeRatio=0 -XX:MaxMetaspaceFreeRatio=100 However we are getting a OOME when metaspace size hits 80% of 1.1GB. Doing a bit or research it seems that Metaspace is known to fragement the memory when a loader needs to acquire memory from the current chunk, and the current chuck can't accomodate the request, the pointer is bumped to the next available chunk, meaning any free memory in the previous chunks block is gone with the wind. More than happy if someone corrects my understand here or can point me to a good reference that explains this in detail. My question is, how to do I monitor current usage + fragmentation so the proportion of free space can be monitored? Also is there any tuning that can take place to reduce the proportion of fragmentation? Does compressed cache acquire memory from memory set aside from memory allocated via MaxMetaspaceSize? Thanks in advance.
