Java in a docker container

[Volker Simonis]

Hi Kant,

there's some work underway to better support Docker containers:

8170888: [linux] Experimental support for cgroup memory limits in
container (ie Docker) environments
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8170888

has just been fixed a few hours ago.

Recently, there have been some discussions around this topic on the
Hotspot mailing list:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2016-November/025404.html
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2016-December/025406.html

and there's another Enhancement request open for this topic:

8146115: physical memory does not see Docker resource limits
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8146115

Please feel free to contribute any insights from your side to this discussions.

Regards,
Volker
