Feb 02nd HeapAudit is not a monitoring tool, but rather an engineering tool that collects actionable data – information sufficient for directly making code change improvements. It is created for the real world, applicable to live running production servers. HeapAudit is a foursquare open source project designed for understanding JVM heap allocations. It is implemented as a Java agent built on top of ASM. Understanding JVM Memory Allocations Performance and scalability issues are generally attributed to bottlenecks in code execution (CPU), memory allocations (RAM) and I/O (disk, network, etc.).

Garbage Collection & Memory Profilers For instance, if the GC information tells you the JVM is garbage collecting hundreds of thousands of String objects every second, or that the JVM heap summary shows several millions of active String objects, it is not apparent where those String objects were allocated from.
