[Discuss] backport - parallel heap inspection for different GC Heap

[Hohensee, Paul]

You mean 15u, not 14u, right? Because 14u is an orphan release afaik.

I'm ok with adding "parallel" as a jmap command line option. It's purely additive, and so doesn't break existing code. You'll need backport CSRs, and you'll definitely have to add 11u CMS support.

Thanks,
Paul

    Dear All,
         Recently I have made an enhancement that inspect heap parallelly for different GC heap (PSS, G1, Shenandoah and Z) and the patches have been pushed to jdk master. The result show significant speedup of “jmap -histo”.
         I am planing to backport them to jdk14u and jdk11u, and also add CMS Support if needed, but I want to know whether it will be accept before starting the real work, because it add “parallel” option to jmap command, which may affect compatibility.
         May I ask your opinion about it? Thanks.
