get jmap-like (i.e. heap usage) information programmatically?

816 views Asked by At

I'd like to get the following information (particularly the current usage) programmatically so I can display it in a "health status" page in the application (and yes, I know it changes frequently). The code runs inside JBoss 5.1.

$ jmap -heap 25837

[...]
Heap Configuration:
   MinHeapFreeRatio = 40
   MaxHeapFreeRatio = 70
   MaxHeapSize      = 1572864000 (1500.0MB)

   MaxNewSize       = 4294901760 (4095.9375MB)
   OldSize          = 4194304 (4.0MB)

I checked the JMX console in the hope there is an MBean with this info, but javax.management.j2ee.statistics.Stats is very thin on information:

org.jboss.management.j2ee.statistics.JVMStatsImpl [ {UpTime=[ 1097449:UpTime(description: Time the VM has been running, units: MILLISECOND, startTime: 1296748847668, lastSampleTime: 1296749945117) ], HeapSize=BoundedRangeStatistics[ [low: 0, high: 828243968, current: 828243968]HeapSize(description: Size of the VM's heap, units: Bytes, startTime: 1296748847672, lastSampleTime: 1296749945117), BoundryStatistics[ 0, 0, HeapSize(description: Size of the VM's heap, units: Bytes, startTime: 1296748847670, lastSampleTime: 0) ] ]} ]

Found out in the meantime.

List<MemoryPoolMXBean> pools = ManagementFactory.getMemoryPoolMXBeans();
for (MemoryPoolMXBean pool : pools) {
    System.out.println (pool.getName() + ": " + pool.getUsage());
}

gives an output such as:
