Memory management of WEB AS 6.20

Hello,
has anybody informationen about the memory management of the WEB As 6.20 or the JVM?
How can I see when a garbage collection takes place? How much memory should be allocated by the server nodes?
Best regards
Olaf

Hi Olaf,

There is an article here on SDN that includes such stuff:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/how to tune sap j2ee engine 6.20.pdf
> How can I see when a garbage collection takes place?
NOT.
> How much memory should be allocated by the server
> nodes?
See the article. Anyway, this is depending on a lot of factors.

OSX inactive memory management problems

On my 2010 Macbook Air 11" running OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion, I have run into some major issues with memory management. This problem persists across both my Mac machines and multiple generations of OSX. I have a 2007 2.2 Ghz Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro Running Lion (upgraded from Tiger) with 3 gb 667Mhz DDR2 RAM and my 2010 Air 1.4Ghz Core 2 Duo (Upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion) with 2gb 1067mhz DDR3 RAM. On both machines, for some time now, during normal usage; especially web browsing using Chrome and Safari (respectively); the inactive RAM on both machines will grow to consume around 30% of all RAM and force time consuming page outs to the mass storage drives on both machines. The Pro has a slower hard drive and the problem is the worst here, the air has a much faster SSD. I have found myself constantly having a window of Activity Monitor up on at least one of my desktops watching my RAM usage, using terminal to purge ram upwards of 10 times an hour to prevent costly page outs, especially on the Pro. I know Apple claims that inactive RAM is essentially free RAM that is temporarily storing recently used information for ease of access later and that it's supposed to be released as free memory when needed, but this obviously is not happening. Right now on my air my swap file is over 650Mb and I've seen it top 2Gb before. The air is exponentially better than the Pro due to the faster SSD, but I do notice substantial UI lag and a massive drop in fluidity as soon as my meager 2Gb is full and I start paging. The Pro is another story entirely, the entire system will essentially become unusable, having to wait several seconds for mouse clicks to even register. That's why I upgraded the stock 2Gb of RAM it comes with to 3Gb hoping that a 150% increase in RAM would help, but it just prolonged the inevitable. I still end up paging out just as bad across both systems if un checked. Even when I keep a close eye on memory usage and purge often, I still end up paging out because I'm not vigilant enough.
I have to limit my browsing to less than 5 tabs and keep my number of open programs less than 2 on both machines. My active and wired memory rarely seem to top 70%, meaning the rest gets taken by inactive, which isn't functioning as Apple claims. Even if my conclusions aobut what is happening under the hood are incorrect, something is going terribly wrong. I can't upgrade the RAM on my Air at all, and the RAM on my Pro is capped at 4Gb. I'm holding on upgrading because I don't think the excess hardware will solve this software memory problem. Whatever is happening is causing a serious drop in performance for me (yes I do know I have underpowered machines), but there has to be something I can do to speed performance. I've read about disabling the dynamic page file entirely, which just seems to crash the system when free memory is gone, and I've read about programs that claim to free memory. Those programs seem to work by taking a high priority in the process heigharchy of the OS and then proceeding to eat up large portions of RAM and releasing them as needed in an attempt to replicate the true intentions of inactive RAM, but I've heard of problems with this method as well. Does anyone have a viable solution? Monitoring my RAM usage myself and ensuring I don't end up paging out is costly, time consuming, annoying, and inefficient since I fail to catch the problem before I page if I get particularly busy. There is no other OS I've ever been acquainted with that has this problem, not any flavor of Linux, not even the dreaded windows. I seriously hope Apple can do something to manage this runaway memory problem. I'd like to be able to open more than 3 windows in Safari. I've had to purge 3 seperate times while writing this on my Air, and I now have 678 inactive memory, 741 inactive, 582 wired, and less than 14Mb free out of 2Gb with a growing swap at 680Mb. Each purge becomes less and less effective and the last one I did freed up only about 100Mb and it got eaten up again by inactive in less than 10 seconds. On my Air, the memory hog is Safari right now at 700Mb between the web content and flash player with only Facebook, youtube, and this Apple Supprt tab open. I have NO other applications running in the fore or background other than Activity Monitor and Terminal. On my Pro the memory hog is always kernel task, I use Chrome and Safari both. While the memory used by the browser does not usually take up the most substantial portion of the total used RAM out of any process, the more tabs I open, the more RAM I use. The browser is usually the second heaviest RAM hog to Kernel Task. So it seems that across the two machines there are two lsightly different manifestations of the same problem with the same results: massive performance drops and extremely annoying and costly page outs no matter the reason. I just want this problem to go away. I've used underpowered windows laptops that can open a dozen tabs in a heavier browser like IE or Firefox while using other programs like Word or Excel and more with no memory lag issues. There's no way in **** I could manage to open that many pages in a browser while using Pages and/or Numbers on either of my machines and expect reliable (swap free performance). This is just kind of sad in my opinion. Does anyone have a way to get my OSX machine running smooth so that I can remove the one thing that windows and Linux fan boys get the right to laugh at my Macs for?

Hi Zephryl,
I was actually able to get an initial response from Sun on this a few months ago. However, the Sun Swing team has not followed up on a resolution for this pervasive problem, even though they noticed the same problem when running a test applet I had created for them. Apparently, I.E. is not releasing memory from the heap.
Below is a quote from a Sun rep. on this in an e-mail sent to me on Dec 4, 2002:
"I suspected the leak is in the native code because the # of handles and GDI objects keep increasing but no obvious Java objects are left behind in the Java heap during page switch."
So, until Sun and/or Microsoft work out a solution to this, anyone who uses I.E. 6 and applets for their UI seems to be in a lot of trouble.
As a note, trying to invoke the Garbage Collector does not do anything, but generally a very small amount of memory will be released (like maybe 5-10% of the memory allocated for the applet).
Cheers!

MAC OS X Lion performance problem - broken memory management

Starting with OS X 10.5 there are evident memory management problems in MAC OS X. The web was already then cluttered with complaints about system slowing down dramatically after some time. Back then i had slower machine, Mac Mini with 1GB RAM, so i (wrongly) concluded that it was due to inferior hardware.
Now i have 2010 MBP, core i7, 8 GB RAM, dual GPU.
Mac os X Snow Leopard was pain, but after migrating to OS X Lion, working some serious stuff on MAC started to be a nightmare.
I finally managed to reproduce the problematic scenario, so i run the test and recorded the screen, into video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5wZwZh61_4
I run the tar+bzip command, which is basic unix stuff, on the large amount of picture files, in my Pictures/ folder. Just before start, i run the "purge" command, to delete inactive/cached program data.
You can see on the video that free memory starts to drop very fast, and inactive is constantly rising. If you take a look at "bsdtar" command, it takes only a fragment of RAM, so the problem is not in this process. You cannot say that it is a program memory leak, because then the problem would not be in inactive ram, rather in active/wired.
When the free memory dropped below 100mb, i started some apps, like Safari, iPhoto and MS Word, and you can see in the video, that it takes even minutes to start an app, when normally (when there is free RAM), it would take some 3-5 secs to load.
I run the same scenario and the same commands on my Linux Centos 6 box, no problem there ! Memory usage is some 10-20mb, no problems with cache/buffer.
The memory management must be very broken in Mac OS X !

Broken? That's a bit harsh.
Immature? That's perhaps a better explanation.
This paper describes Priority Paging as implemented in Solaris 2.7 back in 1998, and that's essentially what Mac OS X is in need of today:
The problem is that when pages are needed, no differentiation is made between system file cache pages and application pages, and worse, the file cache can actually steal pages needed by applications.
Finally when Dynamic Pager starts up and needs to start swapping things out, it's fairly heavy weight in operation, and causes the UI not responding cursor (aka the spinning beach ball) to appear.

How I fixed memory management fails on Lion

MAC:
17" i7 2.66GHz Macbook Prom Mid 2010
SYMPTOM:
The Free memory was always dropping and I needed to use FREE MEMORY APPS from Apps Store. The beach ball was frequent. The speed is so slowly from OS X Snow Leopard, even I made a Permissions Fix, it takes a lot to start and shut down. The memory drops on every app I open and the system can't free them after I quit the apps.
WHAT I DO:
I made a backup, formated and installed a free new copy of OS X Lion and SOLVED all the memory drops.
IMPRESSIONS:
I have 8GB of RAM in my and now I see at least FREE 5.5GB RAM CONSTANTLY (navigating web, without use of huge memory hungry background apps). I'm another 17" MBP Mid 2009 owner with 4GB RAM and noted that it was faster. Both with the last version of Lion. Not now after the new copy of Lion my mac is pretty fast again There is no aparent issues about Lion Memory Management as people are discussing.

Yes, a brody and thanks for your link. In this Mac I installed an old HP scanner driver
I'm very concearned about people saying don't upgrade to Lion, it's a big liar! You don't need to put your mac to sleep as people said to don't waste time on boot. I imagine boot process is very useful for system reset and evaluate hardware status.
I made a lot of reboots to certificate the speed boost, I imagine the system makes it to diagnose any problems and fix itselves.
I feel the boot and shutdown is becoming fast as I use it since the first boot of reinstaled Lion.
Only one issue (solved) is about installing Epson printer that couldn't print wirelessly.
It was solved just clicking at OSX X UPDATE SOFTWARE and it discovers an needed Epson Driver Update for Lion.
Very happy again with my mac.

What is difference between 32 bit and 64 bit sql server memory management

What is difference between 32 bit and 64 bit sql server memory management
Thanks
Shashikala

This is the basic difference...check if helps:
A 32-bit CPU running 32-bit software (also known as the x86 platform) is so named because it is based on an architecture that can manipulate values that are up to 32 bits in length. This means that a 32-bit memory pointer can store a value between 0 and
4,294,967,295 to reference a memory address. This equates to a maximum addressable space of 4GB on 32-bit platforms
On the other hand 64-bit limit of 18,446,744,073,709,551,616, this number is so large that in memory/storage terminology it equates to 16 exabytes. You don’t come across that term very often, so to help understand the scale, here is the value converted to
more commonly used measurements: 16 exabytes = 16,777,216 petabytes (16 million PB)➤ 17,179,869,184 terabytes (17 billion TB)➤ 17,592,186,044,416 gigabytes (17 trillion GB)➤
As you can see, it is signiﬁcantly larger than the 4GB virtual address space usable in 32-bit systems; it’s so large in fact that any hardware capable of using it all is sadly restricted to the realm of science ﬁction. Because of this, processor manufacturers
decided to only implement a 44-bit address bus, which provides a virtual address space on 64-bit systems of 16TB. This was regarded as being more than enough address space for the foreseeable future and logically it’s split into an 8TB range for user mode
and 8TB for kernel mode. Each 64-bit process running on an x64 platform will be able to address up to 8TB of VAS.

Questions about db_keep_cache_size and Automatic Shared Memory Management

Hello all,
I'm coming upon a server that I'm needing to pin a table and some objects in, per the recommendations of an application support call.
Looking at the database, which is a 5 node RAC cluster (11gr2), I'm looking to see how things are laid out:
SQL> select name, value, value/1024/1024 value_MB from v$parameter
2 where name in ('db_cache_size','db_keep_cache_size','db_recycle_cache_size','shared_pool_size','sga_max_size');
NAME VALUE VALUE_MB
sga_max_size 1694498816 1616
shared_pool_size 0 0
db_cache_size 0 0
db_keep_cache_size 0 0
db_recycle_cache_siz 0 0
e
Looking at granularity level:
SQL> select granule_size/value from v$sga_dynamic_components, v$parameter where name = 'db_block_size' and component like 'KEEP%';
GRANULE_SIZE/VALUE
2048
Then....I looked, and I thought this instance was set up with Auto Shared Mem Mgmt....but I see that sga_target size is not set:
SQL> show parameter sga
NAME TYPE VALUE
lock_sga boolean FALSE
pre_page_sga boolean FALSE
sga_max_size big integer 1616M
sga_target big integer 0
So, I'm wondering first of all...would it be a good idea to switch to Automatic Shared Memory Management? If so, is this as simple as altering system set sga_target =...? Again, this is on a RAC system, is there a different way to do this than on a single instance?
If that isn't the way to go...let me continue with the table size, etc....
The table I need to pin is:
SQL> select sum (blocks) from all_tables where table_name = 'MYTABLE' and owner = 'MYOWNER';
SUM(BLOCKS)
4858
And block size is:
SQL> show parameter block_size
NAME TYPE VALUE
db_block_size integer 8192
So, the space I'll need in memory for pinning this is:
4858 * 8192 /1024/1024 = 37.95.......which is well below my granularity mark of 2048
So, would this be as easy as setting db_keep_cache_size = 2048 with an alter system call? Do I need to set db_cache_size first? What do I set that to?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and links to info on this.

Both times happened randomly and about 2 weeks apart, and the laptop (Toshiba Satellite; it was bought brand new about only 3 weeks ago) still works fine after it restarts, but I don't want it to keep happening. I also don't know what the problem is. I used my previous Windows 7 laptop (HP pavillion g6) the same way for 3 years and it never blue screened even once. I tried going to the Toshiba support website to see if I need to download any new drivers but the website does not seem to be working on my laptop, everytime I go on it it's just lines of letter and numbers.
Help would be much appreciated, thank you!

Memory Management Error in Windows 8.1

please check dumpfile in this url related to memory management error in windows 8.1. This error usually occurs when i open window media player....thanks
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=99B960292878F11C%21148

These crashes were related to memory management (probably caused by a driver).
Please run these tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.
If you are overclocking (pushing the components beyond their design) you should revert to default at least until the crashing is solved. If you don't
know what it is you probably are not overclocking.

RE: (forte-users) memory management

Brenda,
When a partition starts, it reserves the MinimumAllocation. Within this
memory space, objects are created and more and more of this memory is
actually used. When objects are no longer referenced, they remain in memory
and the space they occupy remains unusable.
When the amount of free memory drops below a certain point, the garbage
collector kicks in, which will free the space occopied by all objects that
are no longer referenced.
If garbage collecting can't free enough memory to hold the additional data
loaded into memory, then the partition will request another block of memory,
equal to the IncrementAllocation size. The partition will try to stay within
this new boundary by garbage collecting everytime the available part of this
memory drops below a certain point. If the partition can't free enough
memory, it will again request another block of memory.
This process repeats itself until the partition reaches MaximumAllocation.
If that amount of memory still isn't enough, then the partition crashes.
Instrument ActivePages shows the memory reserved by the partition.
AllocatedPages shows the part of that memory actually used.
AvailablePages shows the part ot that memory which is free.
Note that once memory is requested from the operating system, it's never
released again. Within this memory owned by the partition, the part actually
used will always be smaller. But this part will increase steadily, until the
garbage collecter is started and a part of it is freed again.
There are some settings that determine when the garbage collector is
started, but I'm not sure which ones they are.
The garbage collector can be started from TOOL using
"task.Part.OperatingSystem.RecoverMemory()", but I'm not sure if that will
always actually start the garbage collector.
If you track AllocatedPages of a partition, it's always growing, even if the
partition isn't doing anything. I don't know why.
If you add AllocatedPages and AvailablePages, you shoud get the value of
ActivePages, but you won't. You always get a lower number and sometimes even
considerably lower. I don't know why.

The Forte runtime is millions of lines of compiled C++ code, packaged into

space is taken by the application binary, plus the loaded DLL's, plus
whatever the current size of garbage collected memory is.
Forte allocates a garbage-collected heap that must be bigger than the size
of the allocated objects. So if you start with an 8MB heap, you will always
have at least 8MB allocated, no matter what objects you actually
instantiate. See "Memory Issues" in the Forte System Management Guide.

Hi all,

What is the influence of the various compiler options (optimum

We seem to see a lot of the memory is taken by the Forte client apps (seen
in the Task Manager
of NT) in respect to the other native Window apps. For example an
executable of approx 4Mb takes up to
15Mb of memory. When I look at the objects retained in memory after

2Mb. Where do the other Mb's come from?

Java Memory Management/Out of Memory

Hi Guys,
I have a few questions about java memory management
Because i keep encounter a lot of out of memory error which i think java does not handle Vector/ArrayList re initialisation automatically
Asumme i have 2 million record in database and , i will process every 80000 and store it in Vector
while(true)
list = new Vector();
list = GetResultFromDatabase() // Process Every 80000
if list.size() > 0 =======> My VEctor list contain 80000
//loop the 800000
//Process Some logic and data
list.clear();
list = null;
If u See , i need to call list.clear and list = Null every process so it wont cause me out of memory
Before i put that 2 lines , i always hit out of memory Exception.
Seems like garbage collector cannot claim memory if i dont declare
Is Memory Occupied by VEctor cannot be recoverable if we dont explitcitynya clear it and set it to NULL??
Because in term of logic wise it wont cause a problem if i just
do in this statement after it process like below
list = new Vector() which will reinstatiate the object.
Thanks.

Damm i should hacve read your post again
Look here:
while(true)
list = new Vector();What uer doing is craeting a new vector object everytime the while does an ityteration so when your while loop does 40000 loops there will be 40000 new objects in jou memory
i sugest moving the decleration outside the while loop:
list = new Vector();
while(true)
///rest of loop
} This could also be a problem
hope it help :-)

How does object memory management works?

Hi all,
I'm having a lot of problems with memory which seems not to be released when using objects (on Oracle 9i 9.0.1.1.1). I've prepared the following test:
create type t_test as object (
id number,
member function FunctTest(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) return varchar2
) not final;
create or replace type body t_test as
MEMBER FUNCTION FunctTest(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) RETURN varchar2 IS
BEGIN
return NULL;

As you can see, I create a simple type with a member function, and a schema function who does the same (nothing, in this case). Then I call the two functions with the following PL/SQL blocks:
declare i integer;
t varchar2(4000);
ob t_test;
begin
select value(a) into ob from tab_test a where a.id=1;
for i in 1..5000 loop
select ob.FunctTest('A','S') into t from dual;
end loop;
end;
declare i integer;
t varchar2(4000);
begin
for i in 1..5000 loop
select FunctTest2('A','S') into t from dual;
end loop;
end;
If you run these blocks with Task Manager opened (I use W2000) on server console, you can see how memory usage grows very fast with the first block, and how it doesn't change with the second one.
The memory isn't released till the session is alive.
I'm trying to develop an object application, but these memory leaks are making me crazy.
Geoff, does release 2 solve some of these problems?
In particular, please, do I need to free by myself temporary objects (these ones referenced in PL/SQL blocks)? In which way? I haven't found anything about object memory management in documentation...
As always,
Thanks for any support to everybody.

Andrea,
Do you have an Oracle Support customer ID? If you can log a TAR on http://metalink.oracle.com with your customer id, someone can take a closer look at this problem.

Hi all,
I'm having a lot of problems with memory which seems not to be released when using objects (on Oracle 9i 9.0.1.1.1). I've prepared the following test:
create type t_test as object (
id number,
member function FunctTest(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) return varchar2
) not final;
create or replace type body t_test as
MEMBER FUNCTION FunctTest(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) RETURN varchar2 IS
BEGIN
return NULL;
END FunctTest;
end;
create or replace function FunctTest2(TBL IN CHAR, expand IN CHAR) RETURN varchar2 IS
BEGIN
return NULL;
END FunctTest2;
create table tab_test of t_test;
insert into tab_test values(1);
commit;

Resizing an array of struct inside a DLL using the memory manager

Hi all,
I dug deep inside the boards, but wasn't able to find a solution for my problem.
I'm building a dll, which does some imageprocessing and should return an array of structs to labview, with one struct for every element in the image.
As I don't know the number of elements beforehand and the limit of the number is numbers of magnitude larger then the expected one, I don't want to allocate such a huge chunk of memory prior to the dll call in labview.
In a former version I used a 2d array for the elements, where each row holds the values of every element. Here I used the NumericArrayResize-function, which worked quite well. But I have to add more sub-processes and using structs (or clusters in labview) appears to be more usefull and cleaner for me, in addition I had to cast some of the elements back and foreward a few times.
So one element-struct should hold 2 singles and 1 uint32. My question is now, how can I resize this array of struct with memory manager functions as the NumericArrayResize-functions does not suit this purpose?
(Accessing a given array of structs inside the DLL and after that reading the changed values in Labview is surprisingly easy )
Thanks in advance
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well, I was able to solve it myself. I found this thread, where the first post of rolfk made me thinking. It appeared to me, that the numericarrayresize-function behaves very similar to the realloc-function of c. So I used the type unsigned int 8 (which is just one byte) and multiplied it by the number of bytes used by one struct, in my case 12 bytes (4+4+4) and then multiplied it by the number of structs (elements in the image) i have. Luckily it worked and the memory block was resized exactly as I wanted it to be. Important to note: do not forget to adjust the size element of the handle, otherwise Labview does not know about the changed size.

Difference between nio-file-manager and nio-memory-manager

Hi,
what's the difference between nio-file-manager and nio-memory-manager? The documentation doesn't really discuss the differences as far as I know. They both use nio to store memory-mapped files don't they? What are the advantages/disadvantages of both?
When to choose the first one and when the second when storing a large amount of data? Can both be used to query data with the Filter API? Are there size limits on both?
Best regards
Jan

Hi Jan,
The difference is that one uses a memory mapped file and one uses direct nio memory (as part of the memory allocated by the JVM process) to store the data. Both allow storing cache data off heap making it possible to store more data with a single cache node (JVM) without long GC pauses.
If you are using a 32 bit JVM, the JVM process will be limited to a total of ~3GB on Windows and 4GB on Linux/Solaris. This includes heap and off heap memory allocation.
Regarding the size limitations for the nio-file manager Please see the following doc for more information.
With the release of 3.5 there is now the idea of a Partitioned backing map which helps create larger (up to 8GB of capacity) for nio storage. Please refer to the following doc.
Both can be used to query data but it should be noted that the indexes will be stored in heap.
hth,

Database transaction management in Web services

Hi,
I am using Oracle8i and firing some database queries from my web services. I want to do the transaction management for the same i.e. When one of the queries fail, i want to rollback. But when i write my own transaction management, it gives me an error :
java.sql.SQLException: Cannot call Connection.commit in distributed transaction.Transaction Manager will commit the resource manager when the distributed transaction is committed.
Can anyone please help me out as to how to perform the database transaction management in web services.
Thanking in advance.
Prashant

Unfortunately to manage transactions over web services there is no viable solution available in market. All implementations come with restrictions e.g. Metro works with only EJBs on Glassfish, JBossTS works on JBoss but not with JAX-WS, Atomikos supports only Axis as of now.
1. See explanation above.
2. Yes, it can be but conditions mentioned above are applied :-)
3. [www.oasis-open.org/committees/ws-tx/|www.oasis-open.org/committees/ws-tx/]
4. Unfortunately as of now I do not see an easy way to this problem.
