Every year in May, JAX MAINZ is the go-to event for Java and Software Architecture enthusiasts! It is a five-day conference for cutting-edge software engineers and enterprise-level professionals.
This year, our architect Ram Lakshmanan was invited to talk on the topic: “JAVA NATIVE MEMORY LEAKS & HOW TO FIX THEM”.
Unlike Java heap memory leaks that can be captured with heap dumps and standard profilers, native memory leaks lurk beneath the surface, making them far harder to detect and debug. These leaks don’t show up in your usual analysis tools, but they can quietly consume memory and lead to crashes, instability, or performance degradation in production. In this session, you’ll learn how native memory is allocated, where it typically leaks, and what tools can help you detect and fix the problem. We’ll walk through real-life examples of native memory issues and share practical techniques that have helped teams identify and resolve them efficiently.
