More precisely, I did this: # GC tuning options #JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:+UseParNewGC" #JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC" #JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:+CMSParallelRemarkEnabled" #JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:SurvivorRatio=8" #JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1" #JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=75" #JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:+UseCMSInitiatingOccupancyOnly" JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:+UseParallelGC" JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -XX:+UseParallelOldGC" >> I have gc logs if anyone is interested. > > Yes :) > By "have gc logs" I meant "had them until I accidental blew them away while restarting a server". Will post them in a day or two when there is a reasonable amount of data or the quantum state collapses and the problem vanishes when it is observed. >> [1] http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/383/2weekmem.png > > I did go back and revisit the old thread... maybe I'm missing > something, but just to be real sure: > > What does the "no color"/white mean on this graph?

My interpretation is that no "color" is "none of the above" and by being unavailable is thus in use by applications. This fits with what I see will free and measurements of the RSS of the jvm from /proc/. I'll leave free -s going for a few days while waiting on the gc logs as an extra sanity test. That's probably easier to reason about anyway.
