Massively parallel computers are increasingly being used to solve large, I/O intensive applications in many different fields. For such applications, the I/O requirements quite oft...
Past studies have shown that objects are created and then die in phases. Thus, one way to sustain good garbage collection efficiency is to have a large enough heap to allow many ...
This paper describes ThreadMon, a monitoring tool for improving the performance of multithreaded programs, and how we have used it to examine various aspects of the many-to-many (...
Garbage collection can be a performance bottleneck in large distributed, multi-threaded applications. Applications may produce millions of objects during their lifetimes and may i...
