我有一个带有-Xmx50gb(-Xms50gb)的应用程序,并设置了另一个GC选项：
-XX:+UseG1GC -Xloggc:somewhere.gc.log -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps
但是现在我偶尔因为垃圾收集而长时间停顿超过5秒,尽管似乎有足够的可用内存.我找到的一个原因：
[GC pause (G1 Evacuation Pause) (young) 42G->40G(48G),5.9409662 secs]
为什么GCG1仍然为此做“停止世界”？ (或者至少我看到它正好在这个时候停止我的应用程序)为什么它会做这样的负面清理,如果它不是真的有必要,因为有超过12％的可用RAM空闲.另外我认为-XX：MaxGCPauseMillis的默认值是200毫秒,为什么这个值被违反了29或甚至50(见下文)？
延迟的另一个原因是：
[GC pause (Metadata GC Threshold) (young) (initial-mark) 40G->39G(48G),10.4667233 secs]
这可能会解决via this answer例如只是增加元数据空间-XX：MetaspaceSize = 100M
顺便说一句：使用JSE 1.8.0_91-b14

阅读here关于它：复制(停止世界事件) – 这些是世界暂停撤离或将活动对象复制到新的未使用区域的停止.这可以通过记录为[GC暂停(年轻)]的年轻代区域来完成.或者记录为[GC暂停(混合)]的年轻和老一代区域.
解决方法
Why is GCG1 still doing a “stop the world” for this?
因为G1不是一个无暂停的收集器,它只是一个低暂停收集器.
Also I thought that the default value for -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis is 200 milliseconds,why is this value violated by a factor of 29 or even 50 (see below)?
它是,但它只是一个目标,而不是保证.许多事情都可能导致它无法实现这一目标.你有一个相当大的堆,这使事情变得更加困难,即失败更容易引发.
无论如何,GC调整之旅始于启用详细的GC日志记录
-Xloggc:<path to gc log file> -XX:+PrintAdaptiveSizePolicy -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDetails
然后通过GCViewer运行生成的日志以获得一般概述,然后返回到reading individual log entries(关于此主题有很多答案/博客帖子),以找出可能导致最糟糕行为的原因.根据原因,可以尝试各种补救措施.
对于追踪垃圾收集器如何工作以及G1的一般性理解将是必要的,以避免货物结果.
My application has many allocations which could be easily called “humongous allocations”.
如果这确实是原因,那么当前的VM有一些experimental options可以更快地回收它们.

这意味着在执行主要由内存访问而非系统调用组成的内容时,它大部分时间都花在内核中.交换活动或transparent huge pages可能是嫌疑人.
