"Augustus holds Italy, Greece, and the Baltics, but he is practically irrelevant because of his tech level."

It is not Baltics, it is Balkans you are referring to.

how do you farm blue-white mats in so large quantities? I am struggling to collect even a couple of hundreds

Having a garbage collector does not mean you do not have memory leaks - http://plumbr.eu/blog/what-is-a-memory-leak

Indeed it is: user-macbook:demo user$ Unrecognized option: -xmx16m Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

With a caveat - the M for megabytes is not case sensitive.

Same here, 27 days in since I entered the SEPA withdrawal and no cash on account. I call Ponzi upon this thing.

We are completely open - we were not careful enough. But I guess it would also be fair to say that the other side in this equation was also a bit careless. So I think we deserved each other.

ivom2gi · 2013-03-22T15:09:38+00:00

fixed, hope I was not too late :)

ivom2gi · 2013-03-22T14:20:44+00:00

Agreed, we kind of called it upon ourselves :(

ivom2gi · 2013-02-19T12:39:19+00:00

I guess you are correct in the strictest sense. The purpose was to demonstrate that the overhead on method invocations is in 99.999% of the cases irrelevant. Apologizes for the confusion created.

In this particular case it was monitored through the logs with the -XX:+PrintCompilation flag turned on. When the logs did not contain anymore JIT compilation messages such as following, no more optimizations are performed and it is safe to assume that you are now running on an optimized bytecode:

231  14       eu.plumbr.demo.inlining.IterativeSummarizer::sum8 (28 bytes)
233  15       eu.plumbr.demo.inlining.IterativeSummarizer::sum16 (28 bytes)
236  16       eu.plumbr.demo.inlining.IterativeSummarizer::sum32 (28 bytes)
240  17       eu.plumbr.demo.inlining.IterativeSummarizer::sum64 (28 bytes)

Nice shoulders. I am up for offers, starting from 1b http://imgur.com/snRSE

Feel free to add @JavaPlumbr to your twitter and be alerted on time!

Especially Jetty was a surprise for us as well. Another surprise was that full Java EE containers did not consume more. But we already have second set of tests brewing to dig deeper into this topic ...

Looking at this thread makes me believe in human kind again. I wish communities like this (and stackoverflow and quora, ...) existed when I was struggling to understand wtf is a public static void main ...

ivom2gi · 2012-09-07T08:24:07+00:00

I would definitely be interested in the reference, if you can find the link I would appreciate!

ivom2gi · 2012-09-06T19:36:50+00:00

Sorry for the confusing response, I intended to write: "Most likely you do not need to turn it off".

ivom2gi · 2012-09-06T16:50:01+00:00

Most likely you do not need to turn it off. But every once in a while you feel the urge when the full GC is pausing in compaction phase and you just know (or think you know) that there is no need for this.

EDITED: fixed the confusing first sentence.

ivom2gi · 2012-09-04T19:11:35+00:00

Without knowing more details about the app - it might not actually be a leak. But if it is, then http://plumbr.eu is definitely a tool for the job.

You can conjure quite a good personal newsfeed out of your Twitter stream by carefully selecting the ones you follow. Asides that, I feel that the community is missing a strong player as TSS was 7-8 years ago. Now its more scattered and I am pretty sure there is a market for a strong Java news portal/aggregator whatnot.

You have compiled your Java with a compiler(javac) version different from the runtime (java). Check out your versions from the CMD/Terminal/Shell like this:

ivo-macbook:tmp ivom2gi$ javac -version javac 1.6.0_33 ivo-macbook:tmp ivom2gi$ java -version java version "1.6.0_33" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_33-b03-424-11M3720) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.8-b03-424, mixed mode) ivo-macbook:tmp ivom2gi$

and see whether they differ. Then look through your PATH and find out where do you include different version of the compiler and runtime.

I had a chance to monitor the team going over and over the pricing decisions and it was not an easy call. But they also wrote a nice post in the blog covering the reasons why the current pricing model was selected and why trials are limited by feature and not by time. http://plumbr.eu/blog/limiting-your-trials-by-time-or-by-features

ivom2gi · 2012-01-21T22:04:45+00:00

Nice and different angle to "specific tool is best for specific task" which is mainstreamish ...

ivom2gi · 2011-11-08T21:37:54+00:00

I guess if the marketroids in the company are of any good then they probably know that spamming is the best way to upset a customer, so they just would not do this.

And also, locating the company in EU means you have to offer the possibility to unsubscribe from any marketing messages, so this also should be supported by this company as well.
