Large Remote Snapshot broken

Post by masalm »

I tried taking a really large Memory Snapsshot (>300MB) while remote profiling an application in Tomcat 5.0.24.

It took a long time. When the progress bar reached 49% it stopped and saved the snapshot.
But when I try to open this snapshot, YourKit tells me, it isn't a correct snapshot. :evil:

What build are you using? BTW, I didn't catch whether progress reached 100%? Also please make sure that profiler agent and profiler UI are from the same build.

I'm using build 504.

No. It never reached 100%. It stopped at 49%, saved the file and the progress bar disappeared.

They are definetly from the same build.


Another large snapshot did work. There the progress bar also didn't get beyond 49%. But the snapshot was ok.

I think you have a timing problem with large snapshots over a network connection.

Please send us (at [email protected]) log files that are located at .yjp/logs directory. Also we'll add some extra logging in the next build to track the problem.

As well, could you please try whether the problem is reproducible with the latest build 508?

I just send the logfile via email.

I'll try snapshotting again on thursday with your newest build, when a new profiling session is planned.
