Why does the low pause collector sometimes do more collections than the default collector?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions
If you are not seeing major collections with the default collector but are seeing many major collections with the concurrent low pause collector, you are probably seeing some type of fragmentation problem. Try using a larger heap with the concurrent low pause collector.

What are the default settings for the concurrent low pause collector?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions
The default heap size for the concurrent low pause collector is the same as for the default collector. The other parameters are set a described below. These setting have been shown to work well for an application that has mostly very short lived data plus some data that is very long lived. Some of the options require a computation which is enclosed in angle brackets (<>), of which two depend on the number of cpus on the machine (#cpus.

Why does fragmentation occur with the concurrent low pause collector?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions
The concurrent low pause collector normally does not move objects during a garbage collection. Fragmentation occurs when live objects are interspersed with the free space left as the result of the collection. The exception is when a non-concurrent, full collection occurs. In this latter case the applications is stopped during the collection and the live objects are compacted to one end of the generation and all the free space reside in a single contiguous piece.

What young generation collector is used with concurrent low pause collector?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions

What are the phases of the concurrent low pause collector?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions
Phase 1 (Initial Checkpoint) involves stopping all the Java threads, marking all the objects directly reachable from the roots, and restarting the Java threads. Phase 2 (Concurrent Marking) starts scanning from marked objects and transitively marks all objects reachable from the roots. The mutators are executing during the concurrent phases 2, 3, and 5 below and any objects allocated in the CMS generation during these phases (including promoted objects) are immediately marked as live.

Why is fragmentation a potential problem for the concurrent low pause collector?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions
Normally the concurrent low pause collector does not copy nor compact the live objects. A garbage collection is done without moving the live objects. If fragmentation becomes a problem, allocate a larger heap. In 1.4.2 if fragmentation in the tenured generation becomes a problem, a compaction of the tenured generation will be done although not concurrently. In 1.4.1 that compaction will occur if the UseCMSCompactAtFullCollection option is turned on.

Why is the startup with the concurrent low pause (CMS) collector slow?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions
With CMS (+XX:UseConcMarkSweepGC) you sometimes need to set the minimum and maximum heap size to the same value (or at least set a large minimum value) because CMS sometimes spends time early growing its heap. This may also be true of the perm generation. Try a larger perm generation size using the options -XX:PermSize=<initial size> -XX:MaxPermSize=<maximum size>.
Related Questions

With the concurrent low pause collector how can I tell how much floating garbage is left?

Garbage Collection - Frequently Asked Questions
Because the application threads and the GC thread run concurrently, an object that is live at the beginning of a collection and which the GC thread has marked as live may die by the end of the collection. Such objects are referred to as floating garbage. The amount of floating garbage can be inferred if a full compacting collection occurs immediate following a concurrent collection. Any reduction in the heap size is due to floating garbage.

Why does a DVD pause or freeze for a few seconds?

Disney DVD Technical Support

When the player changes to the second layer, the video and audio may freeze for a moment. The length of the pause depends on the player and on the layout of the disc. The pause is not a defect in the player or the disc. Back to Top

What does low dose mean?

Low dose refers to the amount of estrogen in a pill. A birth control pill is considered low dose if it has 0.035 mg or less of estrogen. Years ago, when birth control pills were introduced in the United States, doctors thought the amount of estrogen had to be high in order to prevent pregnancy. Over the years, however, scientists found that lower doses of estrogen were just as effective. The lower amount of estrogen found in today's birth control pills helps reduce potential side effects.

How does the Garbage Collector work?

Frequently Asked Questions about Erlang
The current default GC is a "stop the world" generational mark-sweep collector. Each Erlang process has its own heap and these are collected individually, so although every process is stopped while GC happens for one processes, this stop time is expected to be short because each process is expected to have a small heap. The GC for a new process is full-sweep. Once the process' live data grows above a certain size, the GC switches to a generational strategy.

Why does WinRescue XP and the computer pause at 14%?

winrescue nt/2000/xp Faq
When I try to use the Scheduler with Win Rescue XP, it asks for a password. I am the only user on my PC and do not use a password of any kind. How can I get the scheduler to work without one? I tried skipping this step, but it won't work. I tried to backup a very large directory (15 gb) to CDs. It seemed to work fine (11 CDs,) but when I use the Extractor, the first two disks show files from only some of the subdirectories. Additionally, I cannot open the archive with WinZip.
