This content discusses deadlock in multi-threaded applications, particularly in Scala. It explains deadlock as a situation where processes cannot proceed due to blocking, illustrated with a train example. The article also provides a sample Scala program creating deadlock and suggestions for troubleshooting using tools like yCrash to analyze thread dumps and logs.
Simulating & troubleshooting CPU spike in Scala
This article discusses simulating and troubleshooting CPU consumption spikes in Scala. A sample program creates six threads that enter infinite loops, causing 100% CPU usage. Troubleshooting can be done manually by capturing thread dumps or using an automated tool like yCrash, which provides detailed analysis and identifies problematic threads and code lines causing the spikes.
Simulating & troubleshooting OOMError in Scala
This post explains how to simulate and troubleshoot the 'java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java Heap space' error in Scala. It provides a sample program that infinitely inserts records into a HashMap, leading to this error. Additionally, it outlines manual and automated approaches for diagnosing the issue and utilizing heap dumps for analysis.
Simulating & troubleshooting BLOCKED threads in Scala
This article discusses making threads enter the BLOCKED state in Scala due to lock acquisition failures. A sample program demonstrates how ten threads contend for a synchronized method, resulting in nine being blocked. It outlines manual and automated approaches for diagnosing BLOCKED threads, emphasizing the use of the yCrash tool for analysis and root cause identification.
Simulating & troubleshooting Thread leak in Scala
This content discusses simulating thread leaks in Scala, specifically generating the 'java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread'. A provided sample program continuously creates threads, eventually saturating memory. It outlines both manual and automated diagnostic approaches, emphasizing the effectiveness of the yCrash tool for identifying problematic threads and their origins.
Simulating & troubleshooting StackOverflowError in Scala
This post explains how to simulate a StackOverflowError in Scala through a recursive program. The example demonstrates infinite method calls leading to the error. It discusses diagnosis methods, including manual analysis of logs and using the yCrash tool for automated analysis, which identifies error sources effectively.
