High Reference Processing/Object Copy time

The sys time is very high in this snippet, how to the other snippets compare? Did you turn off transparent huge pages (THP) in your OS and is there no swapping happening?

BTW: this is more a discussion for the user mailing list.

Gruss

Subject: High Reference Processing/Object Copy time

Hi,
   I am observing a odd behaviour (very high ref proc time once) with G1GC

gc log snippet,

 [Times: user=22.82 sys=13.83, real=7.19 secs]

Question
1. Is there a way to find out why Ref Proc took 4.7 s at this instance only? all other instances it was less than a second.
2. Why object copy took 2.1s even though young gen region size is 1.3G in this case and there was not much garbage collected in this case.
3. Why is this happening occasionally and is there a way to enable more logs when this happens.


Thanks,
Sundar
