Each blue box represents a collector that is used to collect a generation. The
young generation is collected by the blue boxes in the yellow region and
the tenured generation is collected by the blue boxes in the gray region.
* "Serial" is a stop-the-world, copying collector which uses a single GC thread.* "ParNew" is a stop-the-world, copying collector which uses multiple GC threads. It differs
from "Parallel Scavenge" in that it has enhancements that make it usable
with CMS. For example, "ParNew" does the
synchronization needed so that it can run during the
concurrent phases of CMS.* "Parallel Scavenge" is a stop-the-world, copying collector
which uses multiple GC threads.* "Serial Old" is a stop-the-world,
mark-sweep-compact collector that uses a single GC thread.* "CMS" is a mostly concurrent, low-pause collector.* "Parallel Old" is a compacting collector that uses multiple GC threads.

1) UseParNew and UseParallelGC both collect the young generation using
multiple GC threads. Which is faster?
There's no one correct answer for
this questions. Mostly they perform equally well, but I've seen one
do better than the other in different situations. If you want to use
GC ergonomics, it is only supported by UseParallelGC (and UseParallelOldGC)
so that's what you'll have to use.
2) Why doesn't "ParNew" and "Parallel Old" work together?
"ParNew" is written in
a style where each generation being collected offers certain interfaces for its
collection. For example, "ParNew" (and "Serial") implements
space_iterate() which will apply an operation to every object
in the young generation. When collecting the tenured generation with
either "CMS" or "Serial Old", the GC can use space_iterate() to
do some work on the objects in the young generation.
This makes the mix-and-match of collectors work but adds some burden
to the maintenance of the collectors and to the addition of new
collectors. And the burden seems to be quadratic in the number
of collectors.
Alternatively, "Parallel Scavenge"
(at least with its initial implementation before "Parallel Old")
always knew how the tenured generation was being collected and
could call directly into the code in the "Serial Old" collector.
"Parallel Old" is not written in the "ParNew" style so matching it with
"ParNew" doesn't just happen without significant work.
By the way, we would like to match "Parallel Scavenge" only with
"Parallel Old" eventually and clean up any of the ad hoc code needed
for "Parallel Scavenge" to work with both.
Please don't think too much about the examples I used above. They
are admittedly contrived and not worth your time.
3) How do I use "CMS" with "Serial"?
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:-UseParNewGC.
Don't use -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC and -XX:+UseSerialGC. Although that's seems like
a logical combination, it will result in a message saying something about
conflicting collector combinations and the JVM won't start. Sorry about that.
Our bad.
4) Is the blue box with the "?" a typo?
That box represents the new garbage collector that we're currently developing called
Garbage First or G1 for short. G1 will provide</nl> * More predictable GC pauses* Better GC ergonomics* Low pauses without fragmentation* Parallelism and concurrency in collections* Better heap utilization
<nl style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; list-style: none; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;">G1 straddles the young generation - tenured generation boundary because it is
a generational collector only in the logical sense. G1 divides the
heap into regions and during a GC can collect a subset of the regions.
It is logically generational because it dynamically selects a set of
regions to act as a young generation which will then be collected at
the next GC (as the young generation would be).
The user can specify a goal for the pauses and G1
will do an estimate (based on past collections) of how many
regions can be collected in that time (the pause goal).
That set of regions is called a collection set and G1 will
collect it during the next GC.
G1 can choose the regions with the most garbage to collect first (Garbage First, get it?)
so gets the biggest bang for the collection buck.
G1 compacts so fragmentation is much less a problem. Why is it a problem at all?
There can be internal fragmentation due to partially filled regions.
The heap is not statically divided into
a young generation and a tenured generation so the problem of
an imbalance in their sizes is not there.
Along with a pause time goal the user can specify a goal on the fraction of
time that can be spent on GC during some period (e.g., during the next 100 seconds
don't spend more than 10 seconds collecting). For such goals (10 seconds of
GC in a 100 second period) G1 can choose a collection set that it expects it can collect in 10 seconds and schedules the collection 90 seconds (or more) from the previous collection. You can see how an evil user could specify 0 collection
time in the next century so again, this is just a goal,
not a promise.
If G1 works out as we expect, it will become our low-pause collector in place of
"ParNew" + "CMS". And if you're about to ask when will it be ready, please don't
be offended by my dead silence. It's the highest priority project for our team,
but it is software development so there are the usual unknowns. It will be out
by JDK7\. The sooner the better as far as we're concerned.
