Question

我使用tomcat用户启动tomcat，并以root用户身份执行jstack。我检查了gc日志，发现了Full GC。

我搜索并找到sudo -u tomcat jstack -l <pid>将解决问题。但是为什么jstack与root用户会导致完整的gc？

环境：

[root@bogon ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release

Answer 1

在您的情况下，GC由-XX:+PrintClassHistogram选项引起。此标志强制执行堆检查并伴有Full GC以响应SIGQUIT信号。

您可以从this answer找到，jstack使用SIGQUIT启动与目标JVM的通信。同样的答案解释了为什么jstack在tomcat用户下工作，但不在root下。

简而言之，SIGQUIT（也称为kill -3）扮演两个角色：启动动态连接和转储JVM状态。如果动态连接失败，则JVM继续进行堆检查，这反过来会导致Full GC，因为-XX:+PrintClassHistogram选项已打开。

使用不同的用户执行jstack Full GC
