The Java Concurrent Mark & Sweep (CMS) algorithm provides low-latency garbage collection, effective for applications with dynamic memory needs. Although deprecated in JDK 9 and removed in JDK 14, it can still be utilized in earlier versions. This post discusses tuning techniques, advanced options, and performance analysis for optimal results.
The post provides an overview of the Serial Garbage Collector (GC) tailored for smaller-scale applications, focusing on its simplicity and effectiveness. It details scenarios for its use, tuning parameters for enhanced performance, and tools for analyzing GC logs. By adjusting key parameters, developers can optimize the Serial GC for their applications.
The Spring Boot Buggy API is an open-source tool for simulating various performance issues like memory leaks and CPU spikes in applications. By testing these scenarios, developers can assess system resilience and evaluate performance monitoring tools. It allows easy invocation of specific problems to analyze system behavior and improve software robustness.
Many Java applications still use files for importing and exporting data. If the connections to these files are not properly managed, it can lead to a significant number of connections leaking, causing the application to slow down or even crash.
The Dell Boomi Core servers experienced a performance outage in the early morning at 4 a.m. Below are the symptoms observed:
SpringBoot is a widely used framework for building Java-based web applications and maintains a significant presence in the world of enterprise software development. It powers large-scale microservices and standalone applications. Most SpringBoot applications have embedded web servers and follow a…
The Java Virtual Machine enables Java applications to be platform-independent while optimizing performance. One crucial component to understand, when considering performance, especially memory utilization, is how the Java Collections Framework, specifically the ArrayList, handles size and capacity. In this article,…
In Java, the finalize method has been part of the language since its early days, offering a mechanism to perform cleanup activities before an object is garbage collected. However, using finalizers has come under scrutiny due to several performance-related concerns.…
In this article, we are going to compare the performance of Garbage Collection(GC) of OpenJDK and GraalVM. The GraalVM is a popular open source JVM implementation in Java with a capability to run applications as native images. Apart from that, it…
Every year in October, JAX London is the go-to event for Java and Software Architecture enthusiasts! It is a four-day conference for cutting-edge software engineers and enterprise-level professionals.
