问题


Considering the following command line

java -Xms128m -Xms256m myapp.jar

Which settings will apply for JVM Minimum memory (Xms option) : 128m or 256m ?


回答1:


Depends on the JVM, perhaps the version...perhaps even how many paper clips you have on your desk at the time. It might not even work. Don't do that.

If it's out of your control for some reason, compile and run this the same way you'd run your jar. But be warned, relying on the order of the options is a really bad idea.

public class TotalMemory
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
         System.out.println("Total Memory: "+Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory());
         System.out.println("Free Memory: "+Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory());
    }
}

As always, check your local JVM's specific implementation but here is a quick way to check from the command line without having to code.

> java -version; java -Xmx1G -XX:+PrintFlagsFinal -Xmx2G 2>/dev/null | grep MaxHeapSize

java version "1.8.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_25-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.25-b02, mixed mode)
uintx MaxHeapSize         := 2147483648        {product}

So you'll see in this case, the second instance of the argument (2G) is what takes precedence (at least in 1.8) and that has been my experience with most other modern versions as well.




回答3:


The IBM JVM treats the rightmost instance of an argument as the winner. I can't speak to HotSpot, etc..

We do this as there are often deeply nested command lines from batch files where people can only add to the end, and want to make that the winner.




回答4:


FTR, OpenJDK 1.7 also seems to take the rightmost value, at least for -Xms.




回答5:


I bet it's the second one. Arguments are usually processed in the order:

for( int i=0; i<argc; i++ ) {
  process_argument(argv[i]);
}

But if I were writing java argument parser, I'd complain on conflicting arguments.

In the various versions of Java listed below, the "winner" is the right-most value in the argument list. As others have pointed out, it is not a good idea to rely on this, but perhaps this is useful information to share nonetheless.
