Hi,
I'm curious if the memory statistics view, or rather the underlying Java
profiling interface, reports unreacheable objects not yet garbage
collected as live instances. My problem is that I see more live instances
than I expect, requesting GC from profiling monitor doesn't seem do
decrease the number, likely because GC is lazy to collect them. The number
does decrease however if I perform a memory-intensive operation in the
application under profile, and I'm pretty sure this does not null the
references to the objects of interest but instead forces a deeper garbage
collection. Another thing that is confusing is that Object References view
sometimes shows fewer instances than listed in the statistics view
(collecting instance data is enabled), how is this possible?
Thanks,
Vladimir.
