Java native memory usage


Is there any tool to know how much native memory has been used from my java application ? I've experienced outofmemory from my application : Current setting is : -Xmx900m

Computer, Windows 2003 Server 32bit, RAM 4GB.

Also is changing boot.ini to /3GB on windows, will it make any difference? If is set Xmx900m, how much max native memory can be allocated for this process ? is it 1100m ?


Solution

  • (in my case I use java 8)

    add to command line: -XX:NativeMemoryTracking=summary

    then launch jcmd <PID> VM.native_memory

    You should get something like this:
