Then a major GC likely is running almost continuously, which will
suspend the application threads.

What are your heap-related commmand line settings?  If you have
artificially constrained the size of the OldGen, you could easily have a
self-induced problem.  Setting -XX:NewRatio or any of several other
options will prevent HotSpot from dynamically adjusting the balance
between NewGen and OldGen.

Or, you may simply be out of heap space, in which case you'll need to
fix your application so that it's not so greedy.  Excessive caching
without employing a SoftReference technique is a frequent cause.
