[akka-user] Instrumenting Akka
Hello, I have an Actor system that implements a polling functionality (every x minutes an Actor is woken up and it creates a bunch of other actors that do something and then get "killed"). However, over a few days of running I get GC Out of Memory errors. What tools are out there to instrument what is going on and why I am running out of memory? I suppose one possibility is that some actors are queueing up messages and eventually the queue gets too large? How do I find out what is going on?

You can take 2 heap dumps a day or more apart and then use Eclipse MAT to compare them (there's a compare basket feature that is very useful in such cases). Actually there's a good chance that even a single heap dump will suffice if the JVM has been running for long enough. Try to use the leak suspects report. It usually points to the right place. -- >> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >> Check the FAQ: >> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.

I agree with Adam, heapdump and/or analyse the system with a jvm tool/profiler of your choice (visualvm, yourkit, jprofiler etc). -- Konrad On Thu, May 28, 2015 at 8:08 AM, Adam wrote: > You can take 2 heap dumps a day or more apart and then use Eclipse MAT to > compare them (there's a compare basket feature that is very useful in such > cases). > > Actually there's a good chance that even a single heap dump will suffice > if the JVM has been running for long enough.
