A few question on Garbage Collection. I read the paper on "Tuning Garbage Collection". Can someone tell me: 1) What's the default size of 'Permanent Generation'. 2) How to print out the available memory in 'Permanent Gereration'? My 'OutOfMemoryError' may be due to this space is fulled. 3) The paper talkes about 'Promptness' (which is the time between when an object becomes dead and when the memory becomes available). Is there a default of this time. Can I print out what's the setting is. I also suspend that my 'OutOfMemoryError' is due to memory from dead objecs are not released soon enough. 4) If I use 'NewRatio' to set the ratio between young and old generation, why do I need 'NewSize' and 'MaxNewSize' since the latter too are to bound the young generation size. Doesn't that 'NewRatio' already setting the size of the young generation with respect to the old generation and the total heap size?
Any help will be appreciated. Stella --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
