This content is part of the series: 5 things you didn't know about. Stay tuned for additional content in this series. When application performance suffers, most developers panic, and with good reason. Tracking the source of Java application bottlenecks has historically been a major pain, both because the Java virtual machine has a black-box effect, and because profiling tools for the Java platform have traditionally fallen short.

All of that changed with the introduction of JConsole, however. JConsole is a built-in Java performance profiler that works from the command-line and in a GUI shell. It's not perfect, but it's a more than adequate first line of defense when pointy-head boss comes at you with a performance problem — and it's a whole lot better than consulting Papa Google.

In this edition of the 5 things series, I'll show you five easy ways to use JConsole (or its visually sophisticated cousin, VisualVM) to monitor Java application performance and track bottlenecks in your Java code. The JDK ships with a profiler. About this series So you think you know about Java programming? The fact is, most developers scratch the surface of the Java platform, learning just enough to get the job done. In this series, Ted Neward digs beneath the core functionality of the Java platform to uncover little-known facts that could help you solve even the stickiest programming challenges. JConsole (or, for more recent Java platform releases, VisualVM) is a built-in profiler that is as easy to launch as the Java compiler. From a command prompt that has the JDK on the PATH, just run jconsole.

From a GUI shell, navigate to the JDK installation directory, open the bin folder, and double-click jconsole. When the profiler tool pops up (depending on which version of Java is running and how many other Java programs are running at the moment), it either presents a dialog box asking for a URL of a process to connect to, or lists a number of different local Java processes to connect to — sometimes, including the JConsole process itself.

Working with JConsole Java processes are set up by default to be profiled. It is not necessary to pass the command-line argument — -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote— at startup. You only need to start the application and it will automatically be available for monitoring. Once a process is picked up by JConsole, you can just double-click it to start profiling.

Profilers have their own overhead, so it's a good idea to spend a few minutes figuring out what that is. Lagu karaoke free download. The easiest way to discover JConsole's overhead is to first run an application by itself, then run it under the profiler, and measure the difference. (The app shouldn't be too large or too small; my favorite is the SwingSet2 demo app that ships with the JDK.) So, for instance, I tried running SwingSet2 with -verbose:gc to see garbage collection sweeps, then ran the same app and connected the JConsole profiler to it. When JConsole was connected, a steady stream of GC sweeps happened that didn't occur otherwise.

That was the performance overhead of the profiler. Remotely connect to processes Because Web application profilers assume connectivity across a socket for profiling, you only need a little configuration to set up JConsole (or any JVMTI-based profiler, for that matter) to monitor/profile applications running remotely. For example, if Tomcat were running on a machine named 'webserver' and that JVM had JMX enabled and listening on port 9004, connecting to it from JConsole (or any other JMX client) would require a JMX URL of 'service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://webserver:9004/jmxrmi'. In essence, all you need to profile an application server running in a remote data center is the JMX URL. (See for more about remote monitoring and management with JMX and JConsole.) 3. Track statistics.

Don't be typical Common responses to discovering a performance problem in application code vary, but they're predictable, too. Developers who have been programming since the early days of Java are likely to fire up the old IDE and start doing code reviews of major parts of the code base, looking for familiar 'red flags' in the source like synchronized blocks, object allocations, and the like.
