Java consuming too much CPU resources

[ManojK_1]

Hi Friends,

In my rx3600 server the cpu utilisation always showing more than 100%.

The main process which is consuming more CPU is "JAVA".Please find the attachment.

Server Configuration:
rx3600
CPU info: Number of CPUs = 4
Clock speed = 1595 MHz
Memory = 12257 MB (11.969727 GB)

There is any fine tune i have to do for JAVA?
Thanks in advance,

You might try asking in an HP-UX forum,
instead of in this Tru64 forum.

This might be easier if you attached one.

Have you tried glance or HPjmeter to check your performance?

Hi Manoj:

Can you paste in the report from these commands?

UNIX95=1 ps -e -o vsz,rss,sz,pid,ppid,comm | sort -rna | head

UNIX95=1 ps -e -o cpu,pcpu,state,pid,ppid,comm | sort -rna | head

I think you will find that this is a very common situation for Java. Java is very convenient in many ways but it also allows terribly inefficient code to be created if the programmer is not careful. The usage more than 100% is an artifact when a program spawns many threads. Your programmer will have to fix the problems. Use the HP Java website as a starting point:

Shalom,

This is either Java or the app.

Or both.

Find the leak, then act:

Hi Dennis,

I have used hpjmeter for monitoring java, The cpu usage and Java Method hotspot output is there in the attached file (1)

Hi Michael,

System is not accepting sopme options from the given command eg:- rss & a (sort -rna)
So i have run the commands as follows and the output is there in the attached file.
UNIX95=1 ps -e -o vsz,sz,pid,ppid,comm | sort -rn | head
UNIX95=1 ps -e -o cpu,pcpu,state,pid,ppid,comm | sort -rn | head

Hi Steven,
This is an application called TCServer (Temenos core banking service) which is using java.
I am not having any problem with memory, but the bottleneck is there with cpu.

Thanks & waiting for the reply,
Manoj K

Sorry Friends,

Forgotten to attach the attachment. Please find it here.

Basically top has:
119.35% in java and steady, using 840 Mb. jpqn is also using a lot.
HPjmeter says you are spending 89% of your time in Util.splitV.
So you need to talk to the developers.

Hi:

Have you considered analyzing what the *application* code is doing?
