JDK12 ShenandoahGC小试牛刀

本文主要试用一下JDK12新引入的ShenandoahGC

ShenandoahGC

Shenandoah是一款concurrent及parallel的垃圾收集器

JDK12 ShenandoahGC小试牛刀

  • 跟ZGC一样也是面向low-pause-time的垃圾收集器,不过ZGC是基于colored pointers来实现,而Shenandoah GC是基于brooks pointers来实现
  • 与G1 GC相比,G1的evacuation是parallel的但不是concurrent,而Shenandoah的evacuation是concurrent,因而能更好地减少pause time
  • 与G1 GC一样,ShenandoahGC也是基于region的GC,不同的是ShenandoahGC在逻辑上没有分代,因而就没有young/old

GC cycle

ShenandoahGC主要有如下几个阶段:

JDK12 ShenandoahGC小试牛刀

Snapshot-at-the-beginning concurrent mark

这里包含Init Mark( Pause )、Concurrent Mark、Final Mark( Pause );这里使用到了White( not yet visited )、Gray( visited, but references are not scanned yet )、Black( visited, and fully scanned ) Color算法进行mark

Concurrent evacuation

这个就是与G1不同的evacuation阶段,它是concurrent的;这里用到了Brooks Pointers( object version change with additional atomically changed indirection )算法进行copy,

Concurrent update references (optional)

这里包含Init update Refs( Pause )、Concurrent update Refs、Final update Refs( Pause )

Final Mark或者Final update Refs之后都可能进行Concurrent cleanup,进行垃圾回收,reclaims region

    ccstr ShenandoahUpdateRefsEarly                = adaptive                             {experimental} {default}

Heuristics主要用于告诉Shenandoah何时启动一个GC cycle,其中ShenandoahGCHeuristics用于选择不同的策略,其可选值有adaptive( 默认 )、static、compact、passive( diagnostic用 )、aggressive( diagnostic用 )

  • adaptive方式主要通过ShenandoahInitFreeThreshold( Initial remaining free heap threshold for learning steps )、ShenandoahMinFreeThreshold( free space threshold at which heuristics triggers the GC unconditionally )、ShenandoahAllocSpikeFactor( How much heap to reserve for absorbing allocation spikes )、XX:ShenandoahGarbageThreshold( Sets the percentage of garbage a region need to contain before it can be marked for collection )来设置合适启动GC cycle
  • static方式主要是基于heap occupancy以及allocation pressure来决定是否启动GC cycle,相关参数有:ShenandoahFreeThreshold( Set the percentage of free heap at which a GC cycle is started )、ShenandoahAllocationThreshold( Set percentage of memory allocated since last GC cycle before a new GC cycle is started )、ShenandoahGarbageThreshold
  • compact方式是continuous方式的,只要有allocation发生,上一个GC cycle结束之后就启动新的GC cycle,相关参数有ConcGCThreads( Trim down the number of concurrent GC threads to make more room for application to run )、ShenandoahAllocationThreshold
  • passive方式是完全passive,当内存耗尽时触发STW,通常用于diagnostic
  • aggressive方式是完全active的,上一个GC cycle结束之后就启动新的GC cycle( 有点类似compact方式 ),不过它会evacuate所有的live objects,通常用于diagnostic

Failure Modes

当allocation failure发生的时候,Shenandoah有一些优雅的degradation ladder用于处理这种情况,如下:

  • Pacing( <10 ms )

ShenandoahPacing参数默认开启,Pacer用于在gc不够快的时候去stall正在分配对象的线程,当gc速度跟上来了就解除对这些线程的stall;stall不是无期限的,有个ShenandoahPacingMaxDelay( 单位毫秒 )参数可以设置,一旦超过该值allocation就会产生。当allocation压力大的时候,Pacer就无能为力了,这个时候就会进入下一个step

  • Degenerated GC( <100 ms )

ShenandoahDegeneratedGC参数默认开启,在这个Degenerated cycle,Shenandoah使用的线程数取之于ParallelGCThreads而非ConcCGThreads

  • Full GC( >100 ms )

当Degenerated GC之后还没有足够的内存,则进入Full GC cycle,它会尽可能地进行compact然后释放内存以确保不发生OOM

gc visualizer

有个 shenandoah-visualizer 工具可以用来可视化ShenandoahGC,可视化效果如下:

JDK12 ShenandoahGC小试牛刀

小结

  • Shenandoah是一款concurrent及parallel的垃圾收集器;跟ZGC一样也是面向low-pause-time的垃圾收集器,不过ZGC是基于colored pointers来实现,而Shenandoah GC是基于brooks pointers来实现;与G1 GC相比,G1的evacuation是parallel的但不是concurrent,而Shenandoah的evacuation是concurrent,因而能更好地减少pause time;与G1 GC一样,ShenandoahGC也是基于region的GC,不同的是ShenandoahGC在逻辑上没有分代,因而就没有young/old
  • Shenandoah的GC cycle主要有Snapshot-at-the-beginning concurrent mark 包括Init Mark( Pause )、Concurrent Mark、Final Mark( Pause ) 、Concurrent evacuation、Concurrent update references (optional) 包括Init update Refs( Pause )、Concurrent update Refs、Final update Refs( Pause ) ;其中Final Mark或者Final update Refs之后都可能进行Concurrent cleanup,进行垃圾回收,reclaims region
  • Heuristics主要用于告诉Shenandoah何时启动一个GC,其中ShenandoahGCHeuristics用于选择不同的策略,其可选值有adaptive( 默认 )、static、compact、passive( diagnostic用 )、aggressive( diagnostic用 );另外当allocation failure发生的时候,Shenandoah有一些优雅的degradation ladder用于处理这种情况,包括Pacing( <10 ms )、Degenerated GC( <100 ms )、Full GC( >100 ms )
