使用大堆的Java速度较慢,没有过多的gc-ing

原始问题

我正在运行一个Java程序,比如program.jar,带有一个" small"初始堆(1gb)和"大"初始堆(16gb)。当我用小的初始堆运行它时,即

java -jar -Xms1g -Xmx16g program.jar

程序在12秒内终止(多次运行平均)。相反,当我用大的初始堆运行它时,即

java -jar -Xms16g -Xmx16g program.jar

程序在30秒内终止(多次运行平均)。

我从SO的其他问题中了解到,通常情况下,大堆可能会导致过多的垃圾收集,从而减慢程序的速度:

但是,当我使用标志-verbose:gc运行program.jar时,不会报告任何具有大型初始堆的gc-activity。初始堆很小,在开始测量时间之前,在程序的初始化阶段只有一些gc活动。因此,过多的垃圾收集似乎并未澄清我的观察结果。

为了让它更加混乱(至少对我来说),我有一个功能相同的程序,比如program2.jar,它具有与program.jar相同的输入输出行为。主要区别在于program2.jar使用的效率低于program.jar,至少就内存而言(无论program2.jar在时间上效率是否也低于我试图确定的内容)。但无论我是使用小的初始堆还是大的初始堆运行program2.jar,它总是在大约22秒内终止(包括大约2-3秒的gc-ing)。

所以,这是我的问题:(怎么样)大堆会减慢程序的速度,过度放弃?

(这个问题看起来可能类似于Georg" Java slower with big heap"中的问题,但他的问题与堆无关。就我而言,我觉得它必须与堆有关,因为它是program.jar两次运行之间的唯一区别。)

以下是一些可能相关的细节。我正在使用Java 7,OpenJDK:

> java -version
java version "1.7.0_75"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (rhel-2.5.4.0.el6_6-x86_64 u75-b13)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.75-b04, mixed mode)

我的机器在两个插槽中有两个E5-2690V3处理器(http://ark.intel.com/products/81713)(禁用超线程和Turbo Boost)并且有足够的内存(64gb),其中大约一半在运行程序之前是免费的:

> free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:      65588960   31751316   33837644         20     154616   23995164

Swap:      1023996      11484    1012512

最后,程序有多个线程(大约70个)。

比较绝对数字,大的初始堆导致L1-dcache-load-miss的约50%和dTLB-load-miss的70%。假设在我的2.6 ghz机器上有100个循环/未命中(源:Wikipedia),我对dTLB加载未命中进行了包络计算,这给大型初始堆延迟了484秒与小的延迟相比,延迟了284秒。我不知道如何将这个数字转换回每个核心的延迟(可能不只是除以核心数量?),但数量级似乎是合理的。

收集这些统计数据后,我还为大小初始堆(基于这两种情况中的每一种的一次运行)区分了-XX:+PrintFlagsFinal的输出:

<     uintx InitialHeapSize                          := 17179869184     {product}           
---
>     uintx InitialHeapSize                          := 1073741824      {product}  

因此,-Xms似乎没有其他标志受到影响。这里也是program.jar的-XX:+PrintGCDetails输出,初始堆很小:

访问内存会花费CPU时间。访问更多内存不仅会花费更多的CPU时间,而且可能会增加缓存压力,从而导致错过率,从而使您的CPU时间超线性化。

使用perf stat java -jar ...运行程序以查看缓存未命中数。见Perf tutorial


Example Time Scale of System Latencies

由于初始堆大小也会影响eden空间大小,并且较小的eden空间会触发GC,这会导致堆更紧凑,这可以更加缓存(没有临时启动对象乱丢垃圾堆)。

要减少两次运行之间的差异,请尝试将初始和最大年轻生成大小设置为两次运行的相同值,以便只有旧生成大小不同。这应该 - 可能 - 导致相同的表现。

顺便说一下:您也可以尝试使用大页面启动JVM,可能(您需要测量!)通过进一步减少TLB未命中率来获得额外的性能。

请注意未来的读者:限制新的gen大小并不一定能让你的JVM更快,它只会触发GC,这会使@Peng的特定工作负载更快。
启动后手动触发GC会产生同样的效果。
