Too few objects in the memory dump

Post by ykit »

Hello,
I did make a 9gigs memory dump,
because i had got frequent GC runnings,
and I was close to an "out of memory" error.

When i opened the file with the YK, then I seen just very few of objects there.
The size is just 900m instead of the 9gigs.
For example one type of objects: the dump includes just 250k, instead of 1.5 million.

The YK did not drop me error, just opened the file as well.

Can you help me, please,
where can I look up the problem?

The java version:
java version "1.7.0_07"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_07-b10)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.3-b01, mixed mode)

Thanks,
ykit

Sorry, the java version is the dump generator version.
