Profiling large applications problems [message #69832]

I am currently trying to profile a large application (1 gig of heap space)
in TPTP using weblogic 8.1 sp5 and jdk 1.4.2_11.

Since I am trying to profile a good size application I have set my filters
to be the following:

com.sap.* INCLUDE
com.hp.* INCLUDE
* EXCLUDE

The applications starts up correct. When I get into Eclipse and attach to
application. It will say Processed: 5115 bytes, bytes/second, events
processed:48, events/second: 0 elapsed time:81. The number of bytes,
events and time keeps growing. When I go in the Basic Memory Analysis
view I see "No data is available for display." After waiting some I time
(about 2 minutes) I hit "Collect object References.". Eclipse processes
for a little while and the Basic Memory Analysis ends up having data. At
this point Eclipse becomes very slow.

The problem is that the Basic Memory Analysis ends up having every single
class with in the JVM. I would have thought it would have only included
com.sap.* and com.hp.*. I was hoping that the filtering would increase
the performance and reliability.

I first want to make sure I am profiling my application correctly. I
secondly would like to figure out a way for the classes to be filtered on
the server side.

My Environment is as followings:
Weblogic 8.1 sp5
JDK 1.4.2_11
Eclipse 3.1.2
TPTP 4.0.1

In Weblogic my memory arguments are:

set JAVA_OPTIONS=-XrunpiAgent:server=enabled %JAVA_OPTIONS%

Yes, you're right, I've noticed that some JVM classes are still included
in the views even when your filterset excludes them. This only happens
for Basic Memory Analysis. Please open a major defect for this here:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=TPTP Choose
Platform.Agents.JVMPI for its component.
