> Key: HARMONY-4489
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-4489
> Project: Harmony
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: DRLVM
> Environment: Linux 32/64
> Reporter: Aleksey Shipilev
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: HARMONY-4489.patch, HARMONY-4489.patch, StackTest.java, Test.java

> Harmony consumes too much memory for threads while running on Linux, either x86 or x86_64.
> A simple test (Test.java) creates N empty threads before memory running out, so it is possible to measure how much each thread takes.
> During run two points were taken: "reference", some time after the test starts and "final", when test stops.
> Per-thread memory size was calculated as:
> Per-thread = [ VmSize(final) - VmSize(reference) ] / [ ThreadCount(final) - ThreadCount(reference) ]
> JREs used in comparison are:
> 1. Sun 1.6.0:
> java version "1.6.0"
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)
> Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode)
> 2. Harmony-r555193
> Apache Harmony Launcher : (c) Copyright 1991, 2006 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors, as applicable.
> java version "1.5.0"
> pre-alpha : not complete or compatible
> svn = r555193, (Jul 11 2007), Linux/ia32/gcc 3.4.2, release build
>
> 3. apache-harmony-hdk-r555580-windows-x86-32-snapshot
> Apache Harmony Launcher : (c) Copyright 1991, 2006 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors, as applicable.
> java version "1.5.0"
> pre-alpha : not complete or compatible
> svn = r555256, (Jul 11 2007), Windows/ia32/msvc 1310, release build
> Test was performed 4 times on the following configurations:
> a. -client (or -Xem:client)
> b. -server (or -Xem:server)
> c. -server -Xss128k
> d. -server -Xms64M -Xmx64M -Xss128k
> Observations (details below):
> 1. Harmony @ Linux x86_64 consumes 10 Mb per empty thread regardless of -Xss setting
> 2. Harmony @ Linux x86 consumes 2 Mb per empty thread regardless of -Xss setting
> 3. Harmony @ Windows x86 works well and tunable via -Xss
> 4. Harmony @ Windows x86_64 works well and tunable via -Xss
> 5. Simple stack overflow test (attached - StackTest.java) shows than the stack size is changed via -Xss option on Linux too, but memory footprint remains that huge.
> This issue is critical since Harmony is unable to run significant amount of multi-threaded applications on Linux.
