QUESTION
We are running a Java application in a Kubernetes cluster. The application itself doesn't have high demand for RAM, but I've noticed that it always consumes 1GB.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-27 at 00:58in case of running inside container, where reserved memory becomes committed
No, reserved memory does not "become committed". The Virtual Size and the Resident Set Size are different metrics, whether in a container or not. What sits in the physical memory is RSS.
kubectl top
does not show you the RSS, but rather so-called "working set", which does not always match the real memory usage.
Does this mean that Java running in a container will by default consume at least 1GB of RAM?
No.
is there any other way to deal with that
It depends on your goals. If you'd like to see the actual container memory statistics, look at /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/.../memory.stats
and memory.usage_in_bytes
. Or if you use docker, run docker stats
.
If you'd like to decrease the process' virtual memory instead, turn off -XX:-UseCompressedClassPointers
.
QUESTION
As per IBM link (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYKE2_8.0.0/openj9/xgcpolicy/index.html), the gc policy can be specified by setting by -Xgcpolicy. Default gcpolicy is gencon (-Xgcpolicy:gencon). WAS is 9.0 and JVM is IBM J9 (Java version 1.8). Next, from the below link of IBM it seems that the setting of the gc algorithm is also possible using flag -XX, like in other JVM. E.g: -XX:+UseG1GC can work. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SS3KLZ/com.ibm.java.diagnostics.visualizer.doc/verbosegc.html
My intention is to apply the gc behavior like of UseG1GC. The heap size is -Xms16G to -Xmx20G. So, I wish to go for Garbase First and concurrent that is UseG1GC. The -Xgcpolicy:gencon also does somewhat similar but it cause the "stop the world". When gc is running the application gets suspension. Little confused that even if I set the -XX:+UseG1GC, will it follow and be effective to UseG1GC behavior or it will follow the mechanism of -Xgcpolicy:gencon? Or the gcpolicy and gc algorithm are two different things?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-03 at 14:58There is no effect of using -XX:+UseG1GC on IBM JVM. It will just be silently swallowed. The JVM will default to Gencon GC policy.
You can verify that by running -verbose:gc, what will reported GC policy being used.
The closest IBM's GC policy to Hotspot's G1GC is Balanced one, the main distinguishing characteristics being they are region based (unlike Gencon that has two distinct ares of heap for old and new objects).
As far as concurrency, all 3 (G1GC, Balanced, Gencon) are similar: global GCs are mostly concurrent and partial/local GCs are STW (Stop-The-World).
Reasons to use region based GC policy are to reduce worst case pause time. They are capable of doing some global type operations incrementally in partial GCs. Most notably, they can incrementally de-fragment heap, unlike Gencon, that it does in global GC via optional STW compact operation. Most of applications will not require such global compact, hence Gencon is default. But, if long pauses due to global compaction are observed in Gencon run, Balanced should be tried. Balanced GC will however slightly compromise the application throughput.
QUESTION
My memory usage on a Django DRF API project increases over time and RAM is getting filled once I reach 50+ API calls.
So far I tried
- loaded all models, class variable upfront
- used memory profiler, cleaned code as possible to reduce variable usage
- added garbage collection : gc.disable() at beginning and gc.enable() at end of code
- added ctypes malloc.trim() at end of code etc
- setting gunicorn max-requests limit ( this results in more model loading / response time at that moment)
Any suggestions on how to free up memory at the end of each request ?
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Dec-31 at 06:51Due to the way that the CPython interpreter manages memory, it very rarely actually frees any allocated memory. Generally CPython processes will keep growing and growing in memory usage
Since you are using Gunicorn you can set the max_requests
setting which will regularly restart your workers and alleviate some "memory leak" issues

QUESTION
I am trying to understand the discrepancy between values returned from gc.get_count
and gc.get_objects()
.
First, the doc (https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/gc.html) says:
gc.get_count()
Return the current collection counts as a tuple of (count0, count1, count2).
gc.get_objects(generation=None)
Returns a list of all objects tracked by the collector, excluding the list returned. If generation is not None, return only the objects tracked by the collector that are in that generation.
now, on a simple REPL I run:
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Oct-29 at 17:41So I have read a bit into the CPython implementation (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/gcmodule.c) and this is what I've learned:
1)Basically get_count
(impl here: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/gcmodule.c#L1636-L1645) measures the amount of collections happened in a one level lower generation until that generation itself gets collected (See here: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/gcmodule.c#L1211-L1212).
So for example, when gen 0 (first gen) is collected, the count for gen 1 increases by 1.
The count for gen 0 increases upon allocation, and decreases on deallocation (the collection starts when the #allocations - #deallocations > threashold
).
This answers question (1) - the discrepancy is because they are totally different things.
2)Now that question 1 is answered, question 2 is actually not relevant when asked as is.
However, we might ask a different question which is "how do I track which objects are collected for a specific generation?".
With Python 3.8 this is possible since the interface of get_objects
has changed and it's possible to get the objects that "belong" to a specific generation.
With that in mind, one can register a callback (via the gc.callbacks.append(callback_method)
) that will track the collection of that specific gen by getting the objects before they are cleaned (but note that you don't want to actually strong reference these objects or else you will change behaviour just by measuring), getting them afterwards, and comparing the results.
I will leave this answer unaccepted for some time to give chance for other answers, since I'm answering my own question.

QUESTION
Using the Visual Studio Concurrency Visualizer I now see why I don't get any benefit switching to Parallel.For
: only the 9% of the time the machine is busy executing the code, the rest is 71% synchronization and 17% memory management (1).
Checking all the orange stripes on the diagram below I discovered that GC is always involved (2).
After reading all these interesting topics...
.. am I right assuming that all these threads need to play with a single memory management object and therefore removing the need to allocate objects on the heap my scenario will improve considerably? Like using structs instead of classes, array instead of dynamic lists, etc.?
I have a lot of work to do to bend my code in this direction. Just wanted to be sure before starting.
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Oct-08 at 20:39Memory Management The Memory Management report shows the calls where memory management blocks occurred, along with the total blocking times of each call stack. Use this information to identify areas that have excessive paging or garbage collection issues.
Further more
These segments in the timeline are associated with blocking times that are categorized as Memory Management. This scenario implies that a thread is blocked by an event that is associated with a memory management operation such as Paging. During this time, a thread has been blocked in an API or kernel state that the Concurrency Visualizer is counting as memory management. These include events such as paging and memory allocation. Examine the associated call stacks and profile reports to better understand the underlying reasons for blocks that are categorized as Memory Management.
Yes, allocating less will likely have a large benefit on your resources and efficiency, but that is almost always the case on hot paths and thrashed applications
Heap allocations and particular Large Object Heap (LOB) allocations are costly, it also creates extra work for your The Garbage Collector and can fragment your memory causing even more inefficiency. The less you allocate, or reuse memory, or use the stack the better you are (in general).
This is also where you would learn to use a good memory profiler and get to know your garbage collector.
On saying that this would not be the only tool you would use to make your application less allocatey. A good memory profiler will go a long way, combined with learning how to read the results and affect changes based on the results.
Creating minimal allocation code is an artform, and one worth your learning
Also as @mjwills pointed out in the comments, you would run any change through your benchmark software as well, removing allocations at the cost of CPU time wont make sense. There are a lot of ways to speed up code, and low allocation is just one of a lot of approaches that may help.
Lastly, I would suggest following Marc Gravell and his blogs as a start (Mr DeAllocation), get to know your Garbage Collector and how the generations wortk, and tools like memory profilers and benchmarkers for performant silky smooth production code
