Analyzing & Troubleshooting Deadlock Using JFR 

Java Flight Recorder (JFR) enables low-overhead profiling within the JVM, highlighting performance issues like deadlock. Deadlock occurs when threads wait indefinitely for each other to release resources. The blog discusses simulating deadlock, capturing JFR data for analysis using yCrash JFRPlayer, and suggests solutions, including consistent lock ordering and avoiding nested locks.

Analyzing & Troubleshooting Thread Leak Using JFR 

Java Flight Recorder (JFR) enables efficient profiling by capturing runtime execution in the JVM. The issue of Thread Leak arises when threads are created but not terminated, consuming memory and eventually leading to java.lang.OutOfMemoryError. This blog explores simulation of the problem, troubleshooting via JFR data, and potential fixes for the leak.

Java Flight Recorder (JFR): Complete Guide

Java Flight Recorder (JFR) is an integrated, low-overhead event-recording framework within the HotSpot JVM, capturing vital system events like CPU, memory, and garbage collection. This article outlines JFR's mechanisms, historical context, usage scenarios, and practical examples, illustrating its significance for performance diagnostics in production environments.

async-profiler Arguments Explained: A Practical Guide to Collecting the Right JFR Data

Choosing the correct arguments for asynchronous profiling with Java Flight Recorder (JFR) is crucial for obtaining relevant performance data. The guide highlights various profiling dimensions (CPU, memory allocation, lock contention) and explains how async-profiler effectively captures data without bias. Detailed command options, including event types and profiling duration, provide practical insights for effective usage and analysis.

Troubleshooting GC Problems in Jenkins

Java garbage collection (GC) operates silently, but when overloaded, it severely impacts Jenkins performance, causing build stalls and memory-related errors. By identifying symptoms such as slow builds and high CPU usage, admins can diagnose issues through GC logs and heap dumps. Proper tuning and monitoring can prevent and resolve GC problems efficiently.

Analyzing & Troubleshooting CPU Spike Using JFR

Java Flight Recorder (JFR) enables low-overhead profiling to diagnose CPU spikes, which occur when threads excessively consume CPU resources, often due to infinite loops or inefficient code. This blog outlines causes, simulates the issue, captures JFR data, and analyzes it to identify performance bottlenecks, specifically within the CPUSpikerThread class.

How to Capture Java Flight Recorder (JFR)

JFR recordings, available in JDK 11 and later, are crucial for diagnosing performance issues in JVM applications. They can be captured using JVM startup flags or the jcmd tool for running applications. This article provides a guide on methods to generate, analyze, and utilize JFR data effectively, emphasizing proactive data collection for troubleshooting.
