Hi.
This is not a pure Tomcat question, just related. I hope that the Java expertise present on this list might allow a quick rough answer.

OS : Debian 3.2.46-1~bpo60+1 i686 GNU/Linux

Java info :
# java -server -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode)

System memory usage info:
# free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       3114844    2947360     167484          0      17768    2372508
-/+ buffers/cache:     557084    2557760
Swap:      5859324      39360    5819964

Question:

One of our Linux systems is running a background permanent Java process, started with the following command-line options :

./java -server -Xms128M -Xmx128M -Xloggc:/home/xxx/xxx_gc.log -XX:+PrintGC -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps ... -jar jar-file.jar

My question is just : to a Java expert eye, does the following GC trace look "normal" , or "pathological", or in-between ?
(and accessorily, how does one interpret the leading timestamp ?
seconds.milliseconds since JVM start ?)


Sample contents of the GC logfile :
