The three "G1 of the New generation GC" of Java Virtual machine

Today began the actual combat Java Virtual Machine Three: "G1 of the new generation of GC."

Total of 5 Series

• "Heap overflow processing" in one of the actual Java virtual machines

• Live Java Virtual machine Four "Disable System.GC ()"
• Real-time Java Virtual Machine Five "turn on JIT compilation"

The main task of the new generation GC is to reclaim the Eden and survivor areas. Once the Eden Zone is fully occupied, the new generation GC will start. The new generation GC collects before and after the heap data 5.6, where E represents the Eden area, s represents the Survivor area, and O indicates the old age. As you can see, the new generation GC deals only with the Eden and survivor areas, and after recycling, all Eden areas should be emptied, while the survivor area will be collected as part of the data, but there should be at least one survivor area, analogous to the other Cenozoic collectors, This does not seem to change much. Another important change is the growing region of the old age, as the objects of some survivor or Eden areas may be promoted to the old age.

After the new generation GC occurs, if the Printgcdetails option is turned on, you can get a GC log similar to the following (only partial logs are given here, full logs and their analysis are shown in the 5th. 4.6):

0.336: [GC Pause (Young), 0.0063051 secs] ....   [eden:235.0m (235.0M)->0.0b (229.0M) survivors:5120.0k->11.0m Heap:239.2m (400.0M)->10.5m (400.0M)] [times:user=0.06 sys=0.00, real=0.01 secs]

The log content of G1 is very rich compared to the logs of other recyclers. Of course, we are most concerned about the GC's pause time and the recovery situation. As you can see from the log, the Eden area was originally occupied with 235M space, was emptied after recycling, and the survivor Zone grew from 5M to 11M, because some objects were copied from the Eden zone to the Survivor area, the entire heap was 400M, and the total stack was reduced from 239M to 10.5M before recycling.
