Useful Links for Java Memory Issues
May 3rd, 2009
Every once in a while I have some problem with memory usage in Java (usually related to either Eclipse or JBoss running out) and I have to remember various settings or tools for dealing with the problem. Here are some pages that I return to on occasion:
Heap memory and MaxPermSize interaction
JVMStat tool
Open Source Profilers
Random Info
Interesting thread I came across when researching the Groovy eclipse-plugin memory leakl
If you want a good setting for JBoss (and you are limited to 32-bit Java), try:
-Xms128m -Xmx1536m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m
