Duplicate String and duplicate objects discrepancy

[ron.amir]

In a memory inspection I've created for a heap dump I can see that there are 36M duplicate Objects, of them about 30M are strings. However, The Number of duplicate strings in the duplicate strings pane is only 3.6M. What can be the cause for that?
p.s. about 26 of the 30M are empty Strings.

Which exact version of the profiler (including build number) are you using?

Yeah, that empty string count is a clue. YourKit might be collapsing identical empty strings into a single entry. Have you tried filtering the "Duplicate Strings" pane to just show non-empty strings?
