Serial collector for JAVA Garbage Collector and serial for garbage collection

Serial collector for JAVA Garbage Collector and serial for garbage collection

1. Features

The Serial collector is the most basic and oldest collector in the Java Virtual Machine. It was the only choice for collecting new generations of Java virtual machines before JDK 1.3.1. The Serial collector is a single-threaded collector, but its "Single-threaded" doesn't just mean that it only uses one CPU or one collection thread to complete garbage collection, more importantly, when collecting garbage, you must pause all other working threads until the collection ends.

If the server is suspended for five minutes every hour, what kind of mood will the boss feel?

2. Development

From JDK 1.3 to JDK 1.7, which has not yet been officially released, the HotSpot Virtual Machine Development team has been working hard to eliminate or reduce the pause caused by memory collection by working threads, from the Serial collector to the Parallel collector, to the Concurrent Mark Sweep (CMS collector) Garbage First (G1) Collector that has not yet been officially released, we see more and more excellent (and more complex) collectors) the pause time of the user thread is continuously shortened, but there is still no way to completely eliminate it.

3. Status quo

Until now, the Serial collector is still the default New Generation collector for Java virtual machines running in Client mode. It also has advantages over other collectors: simple and efficient (compared with the single thread of other collectors). For a single CPU environment, the Serial collector has no thread interaction overhead, focusing on garbage collection can naturally achieve the highest single-thread collection efficiency. In users' desktop application scenarios, the memory allocated to Virtual Machine Management is generally not very large, and the new generation that collects dozens or even 100 or 200 MB (only the memory used by the new generation, the pause time can be controlled within dozens of milliseconds up to one hundred milliseconds. As long as it does not happen frequently, this pause is acceptable. Therefore, the Serial collector is a good choice for virtual machines running in Client mode.

The parameter:-Xms30m-Xmx30m-Xmn10m-XX: + UseSerialGC-XX: + PrintGCDetails

-XX: + UseSerialGC is the Serial collector. Xms30m-Xmx30m specifies a fixed size of 30 M for the JAVA Virtual Machine.-Xmn10m indicates that the size of the new JAVA generation is 10 M.

The running result is as follows:

GC [DefNew: it is a collection of new generations. It is clear that the space of the new generation is quickly used up.

Full GC [Tenured is a Full GC collection in the old age, and the space is quickly used up. Then, an OutOfMemoryError occurs, resulting in a system crash.
