1. Problems and phenomena

There is a dump file with a size of 14G, which is analyzed by the jhat tool

error out of memory

Reading from gl.hprof...

[root@nccztsjb-node-27 data]# netstat -ntlp

I changed a host with 32G memory, and the execution still reported an error of memory overflow. I was thinking about whether the jhat tool itself has a memory limit…  

2. Solution

Increase the memory used by jhat

jhat -J-mx20g gl.hprof

Use -J to specify the size of the memory. [-J-mx20g]
