Hi, I run multiple solr indexes in 1 single tomcat (1 webapp per index). All the indexes are solr 3.5 and I have upgraded few of them to solr 4.1 (about half of them).
The JVM behavior is now radically different and doesn't seem to make sense. I was using ConcMarkSweepGC. I am now trying the G1 collector. The perm gen went from 410Mb to 600Mb. The eden space usage is a lot bigger and the survivor space usage is 100% all the time. I don't really understand what is happening. GC behavior really doesn't seem right. My jvm settings: -d64 -server -Xms40g -Xmx40g -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:NewRatio=1 -XX:SurvivorRatio=3 -XX:PermSize=728m -XX:MaxPermSize=728m I have tried NewRatio=1 and SurvivorRatio=3 hoping to get the Survivor space to not be 100% full all the time without success. Here is what jmap is giving me: Heap Configuration: MinHeapFreeRatio = 40 MaxHeapFreeRatio = 70 MaxHeapSize = 42949672960 (40960.0MB) NewSize = 1363144 (1.2999954223632812MB) MaxNewSize = 17592186044415 MB OldSize = 5452592 (5.1999969482421875MB) NewRatio = 1 SurvivorRatio = 3 PermSize = 754974720 (720.0MB) MaxPermSize = 763363328 (728.0MB) G1HeapRegionSize = 16777216 (16.0MB) Heap Usage: G1 Heap: regions = 2560 capacity = 42949672960 (40960.0MB) used = 23786449912 (22684.526359558105MB) free = 19163223048 (18275.473640441895MB) 55.382144432514906% used G1 Young Generation: Eden Space: regions = 674 capacity = 20619198464 (19664.0MB) used = 11307843584 (10784.0MB) free = 9311354880 (8880.0MB) 54.841334418226204% used Survivor Space: regions = 115 capacity = 1929379840 (1840.0MB) used = 1929379840 (1840.0MB) free = 0 (0.0MB) 100.0% used G1 Old Generation: regions = 732 capacity = 20401094656 (19456.0MB) used = 10549226488 (10060.526359558105MB) free = 9851868168 (9395.473640441895MB) 51.70911985792612% used Perm Generation: capacity = 754974720 (720.0MB) used = 514956504 (491.10079193115234MB) free = 240018216 (228.89920806884766MB) 68.20844332377116% used The Survivor space even went up to 3.6Gb but was still 100% used. I have disabled all caches. Obviously I am getting very bad GC performance. Any idea as to what could be wrong and why this could be happening?
