Palestra: Almost An Hour of Garbage: Performance Tuning the JVM.




Resumo

The JVM has many, many options to control the way that it executes bytecodes and provides services such as memory and thread management for Java applications. It is often very difficult to understand how to use these options to improve the performance of an application. This session will explain how memory management and garbage collection works and which options can be used to good effect when tuning the VM for an application. We'll also look at some of the facilities in the VM that can be used for applications that have high levels of concurrency.
